Mallards of Riva Ridge

A Spring chill in the air and sunny sky beckons me To walk the Riva Ridge. Heavy rains filled wetlands too Which creates glorious views and home for a pair of Mallards upon the return of Spring each year. Decayed and Fallen trees enhance this wetland with a mystic flare. Soon the Sun's warmth will bring out the peepers to Fill the air with a chorus, taking me back to childhood When frogging was the thing to do. Bullfrogs will be heard, and Birds singing already, celebrating the joy of the Sun's warmth. I resume my climb to the top of Riva Ridge, contemplating my Return visit when the warmth embraces the Mallards of Riva Ridge.
