Spring has come. Color is returning to the landscape. The trees are shaking off the stupor of a startlingly short winter and starting to bud. The ground is carpeted with coral blooms. Spindly brown branches are thickly clustered with furled petals. Outside my window the birds are making a racket; they seem to be drunk on song. On the streets, few woollen coats and jackets to be seen; cotton is back, and pale colors and maybe a hint of linen, although no one is wearing white trousers just yet. Inside me, I feel myself thawing too. Time to leave winter's fug behind. I love this resurgence of the year.
Happy Easter everyone! Shall we agree to make it a year of marvels?
