Quotes For Early Spring

Supposedly it is spring here in Victoria, but it sure doesn't look like it. Yesterday we had hail and torrential rain and today it was horribly grey and rainy. Oh well! Here's a couple of spring-themed quotes:

If there comes a little thaw,

Still the air is chill and raw,

Here and there a patch of snow,

Dirtier than the ground below,

Dribbles down a marshy flood;

Ankle-deep you stick in mud

In the meadows while you sing,

"This is Spring."
Christopher Pearce Cranch, A Spring Growl

Spring is when you feel like whistling even with a shoe full of slush.

Doug Larson

I may not have a shoeful of slush, but I certainly feel like whistling, especially after I saw birds going in and out of our birdhouses. Hopefully the sunshine will follow the spring-like feelings!

~Alice
