spring is in the air...

I can't believe that spring is here. We have heather, snow drops and crocuses already blooming and hyacinths aren't far behind. Yesterday we had some great thunderstorms (lots of lightning - it was gorgeous). Anyhow, just thought I'd put in my two cents worth.

Forgotten Language - by Shel Silverstein

Once I spoke the language of the flowers,

Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,

Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,

And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.

Once I heard and answered all the questions of the crickets,

And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow,

Once I spoke the language of the flowers. . . .

How did it go?

How did it go?
