Spring
Spring
A sweet whistling breeze
Sways upon
A mighty tree
Bare and dead as it seems
Awakens from a deep sleep
A cool, crisp mist
Trails through the fog
A dreary winter left behind
Buds open up
And leaves assume their position
Black gloomy silhouettes of bird skating on ice
Fish fossilized and frozen in time
Nut and berry
The awakening has begun
The sun shines brighter
And for a longer duration
Thunder brings rain
And nourishment,
Icicles liquify
And drip are rain drops
Toads leave their hiding place
To eat and to mate
Such is true of toad and snake ,
Of lizard and bee eater
Of flamingo
Long necked and elongated legged
Flamingo assemble for feeding and coupling
Of moth and butterfly
Of cricket and grasshopper
Daises surround the place
All the mamas of the forest
Guard their eggs for summertime
Taking a risk on life
They dig and build nests to survive
