Spring

  • Plants spring up out of the ground;
  • Clocks spring forward an hour;
  • The springs of water that run along the sides of the road spring up due to melting snow;
  • The smells of our septic tank spring up out of the yard;
  • The pollen springs up out of flowers,
  • And the tears spring to my eyes as a result;
  • Bugs spring out of everywhere;
  • And the temperature springs up and down.
Now I know why this season is called Spring.

Cute poem! and if you were a member of the Turner clan, you'd be "springing" up a mountain trail :)
