Spring

Clear sky. Fresh air. Budding growth. 

Warm sun. Singing birds. Brighter evenings.

Spring.

Outside play. Windows cracked. Barefoot toes.

Charcoal smells. Bonfire glows. Popsicle drips.

Spring.

Flip-flops on. Lawn mowers purring. New mulch spread.

Clean garages. Shiny windows. Organized closets.

Spring.

Lizards climb. Toads hop. Ladybugs crawl.

Creek rises. Mud oozes. Kids dirty.

Spring.

Green sprouts. Yellow daffodils. Pink tulips.

White clouds. Blue robin eggs. Rosy cheeks.

Spring.

Change of pace. New routine. Play then work.

Beauty abounds. Faces smile. Minds relax.

Spring.
