Sprung Spring Dung

Youth springs eternal, but does our lower back?

Sprung Spring

Spring has sprung,

Uncovered dung.

What was white,

Now is blight.

Hoe and rake,

Back breaks.

Cut and trim,

Vision dims.

Plant  seeds,

More than needs.

Won’t be long,

‘fore sing that song.

Grass is dry,

Open up sky.

Flowers grow,

Heart bestows.

    I have 10 acres of dung, sheep mostly, our llama and stud horse were helpful because they make theirs into nice piles already.
