I saw a purple crocus today, <br />Though it barely could be seen, <br />While all around was white, <br />And the landscape seemed to gleam. <br /> <br />I saw a purple crocus today, <br />The sky was bright and clear, <br />And yet I know it meant for me <br />That the spring season was near. <br /> <br />I saw a purple crocus today, <br />That protruded through the snow, <br />It triggered a moment of excitement, <br />And meant a lot for me to know.<br /><br />Joseph T.
