The thundering herd emerges,
nests and burrows shake;
Miami ain’t got nothin’
on the partying pond’s spring break.
Indifferent to the heron,
careless of robin and jay,
they hog the warm pondside
elbowing squirrels away.
Hedonistic revelers,
greeting glad springtide,
Mama most the manic,
getting the kids outside.
