Spring Simplicity
By Kelly Dawn Jones
Casting warm rays of life upon the land
Quietly, tenderly
The flowers lift their sweet faces to the sun
They smile and stretch away the winter ache
Now, the earth erupts in color
Greens and reds, vibrant blues and yellows
Flowers bloom to become girls
Girls with long, carefree hair
Soft as petals
Who dance in the fields and fall in love
And this is all they will know until Spring is gone
