The heart that shapes the woods

 In the north when winter's claw
Relaxes now to keep the laws of Nature in control


  


Many new harbingers of spring arrived over the weekend.  The grackles, the wood ducks, the killdeer, the northern harrier, the woodcock, the peonies and lilies, oh my!  A warm welcome was extended to all creatures of spring -- especially our newest neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Red Fox.  As the snow turned to rain, I was given a lot of material for my flood blog, too.

Love and maple syrup shine like
Embers warm, like thoughts divine
They tell us it is spring
Love and maple syrup stir
The thoughts of people into words
Of songs that they can sing
