do you see what I see

Do you see what I see? That the water is emerging?
And the geese are near?
And the fields are flooded with geese galore? Do you see what I see? The beauty of melting snow, birds returning, temperatures warming?
Remnants of the flood last year with hay bales still surrounded by ice and water?
Do you see what I see? Geese landing on a spot of open water? The sure signs of warmer days ahead?
The work of something ancient, yet so amazing?
Do you see what I see? Better days, hard work, a story told?
The melting snow that fills the fields?
Another attempt to get through a road that has been closed all winter? Do you see?
Because I see the end of winter, the beginning of spring, a year of flooding, warmer temperatures and the amazing beauty in old structures. Do you see what I see?
