When I went to bed it was spring. Half-way through my sleep I woke to a roaring wind and the sound of sleet hitting on the sky-lights over the bed. Winter’s shadow had returned not quite ready to go peacefully. Out of respect we will let you have one more day.
What I love most about spring is that every day is a miracle. Another flower opens, the chives visibly grow a 1/2 an inch or more a day, another bird stops in at the feeders as they migrate to their summer homes. Yesterday the buds finally popped on my daffodils that live in the warm…
