WELCOME TO SPRING!WELCOME TO ARIES!
X
Here's one Aries baby, March 22,
jumping to the conclusion that
Jack Frost is history once more!!

XXXXXXXXXXX ARIES
X
Falling in winter's demise,
three inches of snow can't halt
the impertinence of daffodils
pushing to stand on earth
made virgin again.
x
Renaissance in the garden
is a holiday for Aries.
A promise carried on the air,
a trace of green to sniff as hope,
to live anew no matter what the year collected.
x
Aries discards history with a snap so sharp
that the past is not only over and done,
but resting in winter's crypt.
x
At the vernal turn,
trust without end,
a blade of grass,
a childlike laugh,
once more to cross
the threshold into spring.

Hi Lyn,
We have beautiful blue sky and sunshine that we've been enjoying for three days. Maybe I should send some over?!
Have a very Happy Birthday and I hope Spring wins through soon!
Hi Derrick-
Thank you, and do rush some sunshine over..I'm so deprived!!
I heard you had flurries today to welcome spring! Nevermind, now that we have reached the equinox, none of that stuff will last. We are finally entering the warmth again!
Deedee-
Yes, warmth...the snow(imagine!) stopped, the sun came out..it's spring!
'pushing to stand on earth'
That's such a powerful line. The force of nature wins in the end.
Greetings from London.
I can never enjoy spring--my allergies prevent this all the time.
A Cuban in London-
Thank you...I do think we have to "take a stand"!
Clay-
I have great sympathy for this condition, many around me really suffer the seasons. I pray that you find a "cure".
Great to find a blog I want to keep scrolling down! Found you from Poetikat's Invisible Keepsakes.

Oh, I see you've got a Sisterhood award. Oh well! Now you've got two. (No need to post double, just know I'm thinking of you in that way.)
