The Vernal Equinox
By Franklin Price
3/24/2016

The Vernal Equinox has passed
Went by four days ago
The sun has traveled halfway south
Towards Summer don't you know

The temperature is climbing
The flowers are in bloom
The leaves returning to the trees
To give the shade more room

Pink, red and white the leaves of trees
Temporarily are in view
Then turn to green to change the scene
And refresh the world anew

Wildlife is appearing
Birds coming home to nest
Have to get the feeders out
To view them at their best

We know that Spring's established
When the hummingbirds appear 
Those living ornithopters
Return again from year to year

So much happens in the Spring
Telling all would take a book
To enjoy the wonders of it
Go outside and take a look
