Cold sunny afternoon
Birds hop and rustle leaves on the ground
Shiny slick soggy trails
Remaining snow slowly seeps into ground
Thin coats of ice crunch underfoot
Puddles captured under ice
Sweet subtle essences squish up from prairie soil
Red shouldered hawk assertively swoops over Prairie
Thin painted white stripes on fallen logs
Green daffodil fingertips poke reach from under leaves
Ice cold rushing creek with geometric icicles
Tiny yellow buds popping up near limestone steps
Spring burgeoning deep below the cold floor
