Spring Waltz ๐ŸŒฑ


“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature-the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter” ~ Rachel Carson


the above quote for March reads:


"If children at school can be made to understand

how it is just to be humane even to what we term inferior animals, it will do much to give them a higher tone and character through life."

 ~ John Bright


March break, a good time to learn more about nature








 The cats found something to do



 Like playing pretend and wishing that bird was not just a toy.


First day of spring

 "No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn."
~ Hal Borland

๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿƒ๐ŸƒBut the weather forecast doesn't promise it's arrival any time soon.




So, on that note, I'll take from the cats on what to do, maybe take out my toys and paint a faraway place where spring is already in bloom.

Twilight at Sea


The Twilight Hours like birds flew by,
As lightly and as free;
Ten thousand stars were in the sky,
Ten Thousand on the sea;
For every wave with dimpled face,
That leaped upon the air,
Had caught a star in its embrace,
And held it trembling there.
