“Out of each wintry season
it happens again and again.
That yellow mustardy growth,
a photographer’s gold,
signals sunny days ahead
over hills and fields and country roads.
—
A smidgen before spring
it happens again and again.
Wild and free producing yields,
that warmth, that sunny glow
paints the earth mustardy yellow
where fallow grasses grow.” –016 DMA
