Frontier Spring

Another log onto the fire
as they say a prayer
for spring to come.
A warm breeze 
coming down the prairie 
making the winter
snow disappear.
The snow flows softly
down the brook making all things glow
Animals getting frisky
as a new season arrives.
Trees showing life
after days of ice.
The prairie comes alive 
with animals moving to and fro
in the new array
as new wild flowers emerge.
Children all a play 
as mom and dad celebrate
the seasons change .
Birds can be heard 
looking for a mate
fluttering from tree to tree.
There's a hustle
and bustle 
around the home
as the chores 
get done.
Grain to come 
home
and then to be sold.
A garden to sow
and eggs to sell 
as freely live
day to day.
