Youthful Spectacle in Spring
The poem sketches a brief, vivid scene of young men riding through town in a lively new season. Their reckless urging of armoured horses makes the animals leap and strike sparks from cobbles, turning motion into a bright, noisy spectacle. The repetition of the seasonal phrase frames youthful energy as both celebratory and disruptive, suggesting a cyclical renewal in which impulsive action animates urban life.
