Nothing is so beautiful as Spring... when weeds, in wheels, shoot long and lovely and lush; Thrush's eggs look little low heavens, and thrush through the echoing timber does so rinse and wring the ear, it strikes like lightning to hear him sing As long as the Earth can make a spring every year, I can, I will As long as the Earth can flower and produce nurturing fruit, I can, I will... because I'm the Earth. I won't give up until the Earth gives up Lets bloom... Kimmie...all your cold weather and Snow had me in deep thoughts many a time...I found beauty in what you talked about...in all the Winter Wonderland photos you took and sent to me and I would think thoughts I did not know I had about Winter....I don't like Snow but it does paint a pretty picture and I gained "Winter / Snow" inspiration from your daily weather reports..:)) And also counted my blessings everyday that Snow..although can be very beautiful sparkling in the Sunlight, is a rare thing in Central Texas and thank God it only Snows here once in a Blue Moon. When the great white silence comes and fills the boughs of the trees with a thickening, glistening brilliance, and all is cold and barren, we wonder...where be the blossom? It is in the memory. It is in the wisdom... It is in the growth of last spring, and it is coming forth again. For when the season has turned and winter is gone away, the buds come again, and behold, there is another blossom. If the ongoingeness of life is beheld in a single blossom, why do you think that you are less that its life? Do you think that you only bloom in Spring, produce your fruit in summer, drop your leaves in autumn and then die in the dead of winter? But are you not greater than the greatest blossom? Is not your life more important? Of course it is. And as the blossoms continue to bloom every Spring, so will you live, life after life. What a story your blossoms could tell of all the seasons you've seen.
