What Should I Bring? Mother's Nature's Artistry



What should I bring? Should I bring you more snow
To build a snowman, or a frosty glow?
Perhaps a rainbow with huge pots of gold?
Maybe not yet, as it still is too cold.

Flurries so pretty, light, bright, fluffy, too?
What I should bring? I could leave that to you.
Icy cold temperatures to freeze the lakes?
Know Mother Nature does not make mistakes.

Stormy high winds to build up all the drifts
Higher and higher, a blizzard with gifts?
Did I hear freezing rain? Possible, too.
You must decide what you want me to do.

Maybe some icicles, huge, crystal clear?
You're looking for spring. Is that what I hear?
I could bring sunshine with puddles, a lot,
Barrels of rain water that can be caught.

I could bring crocuses poking right through
The melting snow. Is that what you want too?
Perhaps warm breezes just wafting along?
There is a mystery in spring's sweet song.

Whispers of spring with a soft, gentle rain?
If I do that, it's not winter again.
In my portfolio, there is a choice,
Something that can make each person rejoice.

Decisions, decisions, you must decide.
Whatever you wish, then I will abide.
Maybe it's best if you really don't know,
Then Mother Nature's artistry can show.


Sometimes, Mother Nature knows best.
