Spring

Spring

The snowflakes were playing a game--

Racing across the expanse of my back yard

While the daffodils waved merrily

Cheering them on from the stands

And the trees nodded silently

Saving their strength

Waiting until just the right moment

To shower the pollen confetti

The referees blew their whistles—

The cardinal from the tall birch

The blue jays and chickadees

Sounding the two-minute warning

And me?

I’m just sipping my coffee

Announcing the game

Enjoying Spring

Gen 8:20-22

And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 

And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. 

While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. 

The seasons are proof of the promises from God—enjoy all of them!
