Exceptional A children's poem set in four quatrains Heart Crafted Poems - 2023 : Children's Spring by JLR Children's Poetry Contest contest entry Artwork by DeeAyeJay at FanArtReview.com

You need no calendar to know, Spring days are clearly on their way. For weeks there is no hint of snow. Though skies remain a constant gray. As morning's early sunrise glows, two squirrels in the Oak that sways are busy building nests like pros. Both safety hidden from hawk's gaze. The pond is full of frogspawn growing. In trees the nested birds are laying. A pair of noisy crows are crowing, "Spring comes, it comes!",  is what they're saying.   Though skies remain a constant gray, Spring days are clearly on their way.       Recognized Author Notes A childrens Poem Meter 8/9 abab, cdcd, efef, BB Thanks for the use of: Flower Farmers by DeeAyeJay on FanArtReview.com Note: Frogspawn: a close group of frog's eggs, each egg being a small almost transparent ball with a black grain near its centre.
