Scarlet poppies dance in the breeze
Bluebonnets bloom below
We've come a long way from that winter freeze
A couple of months ago
Birds and bees are here once again
For their annual exuberant fling
Migrating back to the fertile domain
Of the flowers that bloom in the spring
Watching the wildflowers budding anew
In this chorus of joyful rebirth
Helps me remember that I, like you,
Am a fruit of this bountiful Earth
