That time of year, here in the USA

The birds are singing, regardless the weather, ignoring the earthquakes and floods. Just more water for them.

The animals are looking amorously to each other and there is the song of love in the warming air. Spring is here

I have added years to my youth yet a skip is in my step.

The plants are turning a fresh new green and flowers are seeking the sun as are we.

The morning walk is without a coat and the moon seems brighter.

I am in love. In love with you all, my brothers and sisters on this planet. I’m in love with the flowers and critters that I wish to capture in my view finder. I am in love with life.

I thank God for another Spring and the gift of life to enjoy it.

    Thank you , my friend. I started to write a story about the problems we are facing on this planet and suddenly, I was dropped to my knees.

    i am so very grateful for my being here, still reasonably healthy, totally in love with life, so ashamed for my negativity that it brought me to tears and this writing.
