After the Storm

Yesterday's rain and snow, gone.
Replaced with this bright sunshine.
Perhaps spring is on her way.
Sun holds a promise.

Today, the storm forgotten.
The bright sun shines on the earth.
The deer dine 'neath the green trees.
Spring is on her way.

Winter, long and tedious
Has hopefully taken leave.
Birds and deer under sun's rays
Tell us Spring is near.
