Springtime On the Prairies
Nature imbues a prairie Spring
with color's majestic splendor.
And Spring's pathway gets dappled with
purple pigments and puce pastels.
Tepid Chinooks melt mountain snows
that feed meandering rivers.
Forming long lazy loops that snake
across an emerald grassland.
A rising sun erases night
with a sense of hope and magic.
And gilding the edge of darkness,
Dawn heralds day's resurrection.
A watermelon horizon
marks the birthplace of a new day.
And pink, cotton-candy clouds float
upon a sea of vermilion.
Reminiscent of paradise,
the wildflowers are in full bloom.
As their purple petals open,
basking under indigo skies.
