It was a beautiful day today, the sun was warm and the bees were out on the blossom. It felt as if Spring was on it's way after months (it seems) of rain..
So I thought it might be nice if we could all share Spring with each other, in photos (I took this today) quotes, or just thoughts on growth and renewal. So even those of you who live in places with little difference in the seasons can maybe join in, if you want to.
Loveliest of Trees
From A Shropshire Lad By A. E. Housman
Loveliest of trees, the cherry now
Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride
Wearing white for Eastertide.
Now, of my threescore years and ten,
Twenty will not come again,
And take from seventy springs a score,
It only leaves me fifty more.
And since to look at things in bloom
Fifty springs are little room,
About the woodlands I will go
To see the cherry hung with snow.
