2025 Spring Fling Kidlit Contest

WREN’S GIFT OF SPRING

By: Andrew Fairchild
Word Count: 147

In a quiet meadow where snow once sighed,
Wren the rabbit blinked at the sky.
Whoosh went the wind with a kiss of sun,
Chirp-chirp sang the trees—spring had begun.

No Pip. No chatter. No games they played.
Wren’s heart drooped like a daisy’s head.
“Where are you, Pip?” she softly said.

Through bloom and bough
