Nature's Magic

Sounds like a boring subject, yes? Please don't yawn. I've been on this earth for 67 1/2 years (I'm always amazed at THAT -- how time flies!) and the magical rebirth that occurs every year in the spring just delights me. Plants and trees that appear dead, magically sprout! Every year! Without fail! This is especially magical here in the south, if you can stand the pollen that goes with it. Right now it's just starting -- daffodils up, crabapples trees in bloom, lenten roses popping out. Soon we'll have the irises, the Bradford Pears and Dogwoods, then the azaleas, daylilies.... Well I could go on and on. If you live here, and have lived in the south, then you've seen it and know what I'm talking about. If you don't know, then you should plan a visit to the south in April just to see it.
I am so looking forward to sitting on my porch (soon! soon!) and enjoying nature's bounty. Happy (almost) Spring!
