Is
there anything better than wandering in the woods with good friends
on a Spring morning?
I
love Winter but this one stayed way past it's welcome but now Spring
will not be ignored and there is a 'bursting forth' of everything
that is Spring.
The
woods are filled with birdsong, the Spring Peepers are chorusing from
the ponds now free of winters grip.
The
earth smells rich and new and everywhere new life is emerging.
In
the sheltered places the sun's warmth is evident, jackets are
unzipped, gloves are gone, smiles are on everyone's face.
There
is a lightening of one's step
Ahh
Spring in the Northern woods …
A
'good to be alive' feeling
What
a day!
“And
Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like
the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
And
each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
rose
from the dreams of its wintry rest”.
~Percy
Bysshe Shelley, "The Sensitive Plant"
