Oncoming Spring

The sun shines bright in Spring
All the plants begin to grow
I hear the birds starting to sing
The happiness melts winter’s snow

The animals wake from their rest
The field is covered in flowers
We’re going to start our quest
I can stare for hours

Through the woods we go
Oops! I tripped on a log
In the trees I spot a crow
Then it was engulfed by the great big fog

The journey is almost complete
I am sad that it has to end
I can feel the blazing heat
If another journey comes, I wish to attend
