It Is Spring

And the rains came. Warm breezes from the Gulf. The winter cold was chased away by thunderstorms that filled the sky. Rain saturated the ground.

And the coreopsis bloomed. And the redbuds. And the first plum trees along the lake pushed out their pink buds. And the purple trailing lantana spread out on the ground. And yellow flowers covered the agarita.

It is spring. The leaves on the trees are yearning to push forth. There are cookies cooking in the kitchen. I Robot is playing on the Onkyo in the living room. And the boy is in there with a book. And the dog.

It is spring. Somewhere up there behind the clouds in the night sky, Mars and Venus are shining brightly. The wine has gone to my head.

I am a very fortunate man.
