Spring is coming, winter files are closing.
I feel the sparkling beauty with shimmering, warm winds
over the hilly hills in California.
The clock is ticking till spring is coming.
Now the horses are trotting with glee.
No chilly winds anymore.
The butterflies are sipping warm nectar.
The moonscape is coming home.
Hello, moonscape.
The seasons are coming and going quickly.
I’m hunting for more butterflies.
I’m picturing the business bees rushing at the presidents.
I smell the natural smell of summer.
