Spring!

Mar 09, 2010 15:19

So, Spring happened over the weekend. You could sort of tell last week, when the north (ie. south-facing) side of the street was grassy and the south side of the street was snowbound. Today it's 66 degrees farenheit and sunny. My daffodils are poking up through and around the last patches of snow, and I haven't worn a coat in days. It's fantastic. Makes me want to sprout seeds and go hiking. Sadly, there's just too much grading for that. But anyway - MARCH! right on!

38. Winter. C.M.

His hoary frost, His fleecy snow
Descend and clothe the ground;
The liquid streams forbear to flow,
In icy fetters bound.

He sends His Word and melts the snow,
The fields no longer mourn;
He calls the warmer gales to blow
And bids the spring return.
