For Miles Along I-75
It's early March
      the grass is dry, brown and dead
            for miles in all directions
the trees are brownish gray and lifeless
      from this distance
the 'evergreens' seem to be on life support
     and even the sky is gray and dull.
Ah, but this is March:
     soon the rains will come
           and then everything will green right up
                causing one and all who travel the interstates
                     to know exactly why this is called
the "Bluegrass State."
