Mother Nature
by Cassie McNair - (Skwerl23)
In the blossoms of her spring she wakes
from winter’s hibernation.
The warmth defrosts her icy lakes.
Robins chirp in celebration.

As far as eye can see, it seems
Nature’s tending to her brood.
From salmon spawning in her streams
to deer a-fawning in her wood.

Onward she marches to her inner drummer
to a melody of sweet romance.
A nightingale sings oh so softly of summer
when fireworks fly and fireflies dance.

Like a shadow she will fade
and quiet she will go.
By cover of the oak tree shade
or beneath star-studded throw.

In the crisp autumn air
caws an autumn crow.
The trees, they don their autumn flair.
The birds know where to go.

Nothing’s left, no tree nor creature
and she is left alone.
No color nor distinguished feature
nor solitary stone.

Strick with grief, she lashes out
with waves of stoic snows.
She’ll throw a fit, and cry and pout
but in her heart, she knows,

that this is for the best.
Her children aren’t gone for good.
They’ll soon return to the nest,
as they well know they should.
