    About this ebook

    Spring is here with bright green trees,
    winter has gone and left with a breeze,
    summer is coming with heat, flies and fleas,
    fall will bring color and maybe a freeze.

    Spring is here with lots of grass to mow,
    winter has gone and so has all the snow,
    summer is coming and everything will grow,
    fall will bring cool winds that blow.

    Spring is here with all the bees,
    winter has gone and left all those seeds,
    summer is coming with flowers and more weeds,
    fall will bring frost and multi colored leaves.

    Spring is here and it’s time to plant,
    winter has gone and no more long pants,
    summer is coming with lots of fire ants,
    fall will bring the harvest and plans to replant.

    Spring is here with trees green as peas,
    winter has gone and it’s warmed up a few degrees,
    summer is coming, it will be hot if we don’t get a breeze,
    fall will bring relief and cause some to sneeze.

    Spring is here with bees to make our cabin like Swiss cheese,
    winter has gone and there is plenty to do or just remain at ease,
    summer is coming with ticks and maybe Lyme disease,
    fall will bring down, like snow, all those golden leaves.

      Lay Of The Land

      May 3, 2020

      TODAY I’m the self-appointed inspector of the alley behind our house. A mop rests end-up on my neighbor’s chainlink fence, its teardrop loops of purple string drying in the heat. Wisteria, I think, because it’s spring, and I have flowers on the brain

      DEDICATION

      Dedicated to my wife Kathleen. Who showed me that anything is possible as I watched her give speeches to large groups and teach children. She has inspired me to push for perfection..

      Nature

      Spring brings so many things to write about with everything so new, bright and green. Trees, Bees and Weeds was inspired by sitting on our cabin porch one early spring day. The Coosawattee River flows by about fifty feet from the porch and is full of wild life. Ducks that fly up the river in the morning and float back down in the evening. Turtles that sun on the
