While I was out, I noticed that Spring is really starting to burst out.....
daffodils at the drive thru (yes I needed a veggie burger fix)
buffalo grass sprouting up all over the yard with its little white flowers
green leaves popping out on the honeysuckle bushes
blossoms getting ready to burst out on some of the trees
and some were in their full glory (this one really made me smile. If I had been riding a bike you would have heard me singing)
Today is March first. That means meteorlogically it is the first day of Spring. So the storms may blow and there may be spells of cold, but it's March and that means that winter is on its way out.
DEAR March, come in! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
How glad I am! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I looked for you before. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Put down your hat— | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
You must have walked— | 5 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
How out of breath you are! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Dear March, how are you? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
And the rest? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Did you leave Nature well? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Oh, March, come right upstairs with me, | 10 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I have so much to tell! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Hope you come through the second day of storms unscathed! Looks so nice and springlike where you are!
ReplyDeleteI thought about you yesterday when they showed Greenfield, Ky on the news. Glad everything was o.k. Your right about March being spring,I feel the same way. I haven't even planned to go to any estate sales because of tomorrows storms. We'll see what spring brings next!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post Laura. The same goes for here as well, as far as the weather and the blooming and sprouting, and goings on. Love the poem. Today was glorious and I am hoping they are wrong about tomorrow!! Snow on Sunday, I DON"T THINK SO! Mind over matter!! LOL. Have a wonderful weekend and hang on to YOU'RE HAT TOO!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you weren't hit by the storm. Spring looks like it's springing there. We finally have snow here, but it's melting already. I can't wait to see flowers.
