May
Dormant
brown turf lines ditch.
Dry, dry, dry.
Spring rains
Water flows
Green meadow grows.
Bullfrog croaks
Tadpoles swim.
Whimsical
Unexpected
Nature.
brown turf lines ditch.
Dry, dry, dry.
Spring rains
Water flows
Green meadow grows.
Bullfrog croaks
Tadpoles swim.
Whimsical
Unexpected
Nature.
