Crocus Focus

Let us focus
On the crocus
Pushing through the soil

Bright shade
On parade
Hope the rain won't spoil

Colours bright
What a sight
On a dull, grey day

Heralding Spring
Hopes bring
They now light the way

Autumn fruit
Seed to root
The seasons' cycle turn

Farmers sow
Crops grow
Man he now must learn

Love our Earth
That's her worth
She will love us back

Gently tend
Be her friend
Nought will we ever lack

Know our limits
What she permits
She will stay on our side

Overuse leads
To ungrown seeds
And down the slope we slide

Let us focus
On the crocus
Such a pretty sight

Ignore warning
Ideas dawning
Sorry will be our plight
