Prairie Floor

Wind swept prairie land Against all elements you stand The sun shone brightly on this spring day Bringing forth the early buds of May This wondrous season, time of rebirth Snow disappears from mother earth Crocus and tulips are beginning to rise Covering the earth before our eyes Birds are arriving from the south Ice is melting at the rivers mouth Rabbits shed their coat of white Days are longer giving more light Waters rise high and rush away On this warm spring like day Grass is turning from brown to green Adding color to make a picturesque scene Trees full of buds and seeds Spring is in the prairies , yes indeed.
