Another gray, rainy day here in eastern Pennsylvania. I think the sun has forsaken us. It was a great day to stay inside and curl up with a quilt, a cat, a cup of tea, something new-agey on the stereo, and an excellent book. Unfortunately, that was not to be…had to go to work. On a brighter note, though, as I was leaving the house this morning at 7:15, I actually heard birds singing for the first time since winter set in. A truly hopeful, spirit-lifting sound! Can it be that spring really is on the way? How long till we spy the first robin hopping across the lawn? See the first crocus poking up shyly through the ivy? Notice tender buds on the red maple trees?

Spring–it’s on its way,

Returning warmth to the land

And hope to the heart.
