SPRING






Hills are veiled in morning mist.
Spring is in the air.

*

"Uplifting sights and sounds surround
New life at every door
Birth of Spring reminds us all
That life renews in us once more.

Flowers dormant underground
Push through earth, reveal
Brilliance in the light of Spring
Warmth for all to feel.

In thankfulness we lift our eyes
With loving thoughts in heart
We give thanks for all things good
For blessings the Creator imparts.

Let our hearts be ever glad
For beauty that abounds
And gives a taste of heaven's glory
Where Spring is all around.

By caring, sharing gifts on earth
With those who need a blessing
We'll one day reap eternal Spring
In the presence of our Creator
Living a divine blessing."

A spring prayer
Susan Helene Kramer

Another beautiful set of pictures, the first one is like a piece of painting. 我想到了黄鹂鸟,想到了水仙花,想到了春天。Thanks Iza for making my dress look so beautiful. And dear Iza, you are so tall, so are Landon and Nea, all look taller than their peers :) Hug!

Thank you for this spring post, the poem and the photos. It brings hope and shining yellow joy to my heart. The first picture is fascinating, and Iza in all is shining. Yes, she's really like a yellow bird, a daffodil, and the most radiant spring day !
