Off Spring Of Spring



Nature becomes "giddy"
with offspring of Spring.
In a "simple ditty"
she lets sparrows sing.
Nature becomes "pretty"
with offspring of Spring.
In a "garden city"
she sprouts fairy ring.
Nature becomes "flighty"
with offspring of Spring.
In a "high and mighty"
she lifts hearts on wing.
Nature becomes "skitty"
with offspring of Spring.
In a "Walter Mitty"
she gives dreams a fling.
Nature becomes "witty"
with offspring of Spring.
In a "nitty-gritty"
she crafts everything.
