Promise is Spring


"It was one of the first of the spring days - one of the days that seemed to be promise and fulfillment in one"
~ Lucretia Peabody Hale (1820 - 1900)




We knew that day today.  The  sweet warmth that 'hints of summer'.  Thoughts of other spring days fluttered in the corner of memory.  Savor this moment.  Drink in the color.  Remember the lilac scent on the breeze. Notice the sunlight filtered by trees dense with leafs. Hold this fragile joy to your heart. The moment will pass too soon. Spring is a sprinter and already she is running down the track...
