Spring in the Mountains

The mountains are snow capped in white

And the spring melt is quite the sight

It's flowing like a waterfall

With chunks of ice so very small

The sun is out and shines so bright

Like diamonds glistening in light

And as the waterfalls get large

The more it melts, the more discharge

The river swells over the banks

Its flooding almost seems like pranks

And wild flowers all get their share

With water going everywhere

The river flows toward the ocean

With such a roar of commotion

It's always at this time of year

The merge takes place where there's no fear

The cold mountain flow is now done

The forest animals don't run

Spring's over now and summer comes

And turns the seeds to grapes and plums
