A SPRING POEM
WELCOMEING SPRING! ~ NOW REPLACING THE WINTER FROM HELL!
Spring has come with many~
Unique features~
First the warm air that heatedly melts~
The winter from hell~
As the rain that pours~
Cuts out a dell.
Spring comes with added new creatures~
As the chilled birds still come to the feeder.
The cardinal so vibrant~
And big~
Still teeters himself~
On the narrow rim~
As he eats.
There comes the cute squirrel~
Who if you do not leave food on~
The ground~
He does acrobatic tricks~
To find what he has found.
Next it is the opossum~
Whom all winter kept warm under the porch~
He eats furiously like an elf~
That does it for sport.
I am shocked when the wild turkey~
As huge as he is~
Pecks away at the frosted seed~
His mate awaits him~
In the field a miss.
The morning doves~
With grey feathers~
A couple forever~
Rub each other~
Cooing together.
The bobcat foot prints~
Once only a track~
Laid in the snow~
Now he is seen with his fur coat~
On the go.
Even though melting~
There is still more~
Snow from hell to subside~
Yet the sun now is more vibrant~
So we are more apt to go~
Venturing outside.
Chipmunks now come from hibernation~
A tell tale sign that winter has ended.
Soon the make shift streams~
From the melted snow will also subside~
They will trickle to their end~
And the spots will be dry.
Shortly there will be bears~
Awakening~
They will be meandering through~
Our yards grassy clearing.
The bunnies are out with their fluff tales~
A running~
The deer will before long~
Be spiritedly mating.
It was the winter from hell~
Sure enough~
On all living beings it certainly~
Was ruff.
The winter from hell~
Kept the coyotes a crying~
For food was scarce to nil~
Now hopeful they are more quite~
As the springtime~
Is more comforting for their diet.
Now we hear the Canadian Geese~
Returning~
Now the breeze~
Is not so freezing.
Oh how we welcome the spring replacing~
The winter from hell!
Oh how we are so grateful for Mother Nature~
To finally ring the spring time bell!
