A sign of spring in central Texas

Spring's Arrival

by sherrygreywolf

Seeds Sleeping
Beneath cold winter ground
Waiting for warm March rains to begin.
 
A slow push,
Rising above dark earth
Searching, stretching up toward the sun.
 
Blue Bonnets
Texas symbols of spring
Form welcome carpets of blue and green.

The sight of blue bonnets dotting the hills of central Texas are a sure sign that spring is here. I've spent many an hour driving up and down Texas highways looking for the perfect patch of blue bonnets to use for a backdrop to take pictures of my kids. But you have to be careful - rattlesnakes seem drawn to their blossoms, as well.
