Looking Outside
by Elizabeth Wrobel
Looking outside and what do I see?
A squirrel zipping up that old oak tree.
Looking outside and what is there?
A butterfly fluttering without a care.
Looking outside and what is that?
A white-tailed deer leaping through the yard in back.
Looking outside and what is it I’m seeing?
Animals welcoming the sweet days of spring.
