Spring

The sun beats down on the glistening ice until it reflects off of bubbling brooks and rivers instead

Up above the once gray and cloudy sky is a periwinkle blue

A summer breeze ruffles the feathers of the geese who fly north

The marshy fields turn green once more as yellow daffodils dot the hills

Birds begin to sing their almost forgotten songs

Peepers croak loudly on wet evenings after a long winter’s rest

Butterflies begin to swarm the trees that erupt with fragrant blossoms

Winter coats are stored in dark closets, replaced by colorful dresses and shorts
