Spring officially began a week ago - can hardly tell up here, but there are a few signs heralding the season between winter, mud and black fly season in Maine. Maybe seasons don't change much or at all where you live, but please show us what the end of March looks like in your locale.


Thanks again, Pat......

Hi Pat
Fairy Slipper's are quite rare. They're an orchard that lives in the full shade. I only know of 1 small patch that's easy to get to; 10 minute drive and 10 minute hike.

A very nice beginning Pat. I'll be glad to see some of the photos from folks who are seeing spring more advanced than we have here.

Welcome Spring
Oh Happy Day! The first day of spring! Good bye winter, I am not sorry to see you go although your presence the last few days has been gentle. My apologies to those who have read this before. I wrote this several springs ago but it has become my welcome acknowledgement to this delightful season every since.


Personifications of Spring
spring whispered and I listened

as trees swung their bare branches in welcome

pussy willows basked in warm sunlight

lulled by blended sounds of mating melodies

singing ageless songs of hopeful renewal

spring sighed and I watched

as melting snow created lawn ponds

awakened roots in the moist earth

quenched their frozen winter thirst

and yearned to stretch their green shoots upward

spring shouted and I felt its power

as disintegrating river ice abandoned its frozen grasp

pelting rains and furious winds spurned slothful winter

and rivers swelled their banks with prideful freedom

while egg laden fish dreamed of journeying home

spring returned today and I smiled

and was content
Welcome Spring br Oh Happy Day! The first day of s... (show quote)


Certainly tells the reawakening Spring!!
