Come walk with me in the sunshine, distant memories of warmth on our faces.
Fingers no longer cold, layers no longer needed.
Winter's icy tentacles loosened, grasp slipping
Watch it sent back in despair
to a dark and dismal cave, fit only for the cold beast.
Spring step forward in Winter's place, let us greet you with wonder,
dance with us among the new purple crocus.

After waxing poetically in the garden don't forget to pick your coat back up from the bench by the slightly budding lilac bushes.
ReplyDeleteEvery spring I am so disappointed that I talked myself out of crocus bulbs last fall. This year that is the first bunch of bulbs I am ordering! when we first moved here there were crocus all over in the lawn. But Dirt is a dilligent mower and after a few years of mowing as soon as possible there are no signs of them left.
