Ev’ry morning when I wake up,

I put hot coffee in my coffee cup.

The coffee taste is a nice surprise and

the caffeine jolt opens up my eyes.

Today, I dyed my Easter eggs.

Yes, I know it’s a little early.

But, I looked outside at the dripping sky.

I was feeling cross and surly.

So I brought spring color into the house

and it wasn’t very long,

before the cheerful Easter eggs

filled up my heart with song.

The weather’s cold.

And gray.  And harsh.

I guess we’re still

in the Midst of March.

Five hundred forty thousand have died.

The death rate’s slightly slowing.

We’re going back to biz’ness as usu’l.

The apathy is growing.

Today’s the Vernal Equinox—

ends the darkest of the year.

Today starts the bright beginning.

Spring is Officially Here!

It’s time for springtime daffodils,

for hyacinths and crocus.

It’s time for flowering trees and shrubs.

Spring’s coming into focus!

Got a cup of coffee

and settled in…

…pulled my snuggly blanket

up under my chin…

Watched the morning

day wake up…

…with my snuggly blanket

and a coffee cup…

Every rainbow carries a promise

of Gold beyond compare.

Here’s my Rainbow Promise to you:

its Gold I’ll gladly share.

Champagne and bon bons

are a treat.

Add good friends.

The party’s complete.

Thanks for the golden daffodils.

They fill my house with spring.

Thanks for your pleasant company

and the joy you always bring.
