SPRING

A chill in the air
Wind blowing my tree
Spring is here
Well almost, I see.

Squirrels in my yard
Squirrels in my tree
Squirrels chasing one another
Make me laugh with glee.

Basketballs in my yard
Kites in my tree
Children chasing each other
Are lots of fun to see.

Grackles in my yard
Sparrows in my tree
I miss the blue jays
That I used to see.

Grass in my yard
Leaves on my tree
Weeds are growing
In places they shouldn’t be.

Mower’s in the garage
That’s easy to see
I should be using it
But I’d rather watch tv.

April is coming soon
And a visit to family
But now it’s only March
Instead of February.
