“Who Knocks? That April-
Lock the Door-
I will not be pursued
He stayed a Year away to call
When I am occupied
But trifles look so trivial
As soon as you have come
That blame is just as dear as Praise
And Praise as mere as Blame”
Emily Dickinson

House Sparrow 
Did you grow up with Knock-knock jokes? They were a staple of childhood for me. Here’s an example that does well for spring:
Knock, knock…
Who’s there?
Leaf.
Leaf who?
Leaf me alone!
They were silly as could be, but also in the spirit of Emily at her playful best.
