A Quaint little meadow

In a nameless place

 

A slumbering tree on a hilltop

Leaves unfurling, Reaching its arms to the sky

 

The blue sky
Overarching, Always watching

 

A hawk sharply gazing

Pursuing, persevering

 

A yellow canary singing

Voice uplifting, sweet melody carrying

 

The rolling hills

Filled with green and full of patience

 

A lone flower sprouting

Soon to be joined by others

 

Connecting, supporting, empowering

 

Perhaps

 

It is not so quaint

After all


The author's comments:

I wanted to write a piece about nature and the coming of spring, but also how there is more than what meets the eye at first glance. This incorporated perseverance, ambition, supporting others, and connecting, although it was not very obvious. I tried to illustrate how nature, people, and everything can be much more than you think if you look closer.
