Spring in the Farmer’s Field
by Abhinav Vennapureddy (age 12)
The frost retreats as the morning sun warms the Farmer’s Almanac soil,
Ending the winter’s quiet and the season of cold.
Green shoots of barley and wheat start to sprout,
Through the damp earth that was frozen and bare.
The tractor awakens with a rhythmic, low hum,
Signaling the labor of months yet to come.
Pink blossoms of apple and cherry take flight,
In a soft, fragrant snow of the purest white.
Cows find footing on the hillsides of green,
Life stirs and flourishes on every side —
A farm showered upon golden light,
Under California skies so clear and bright.
