Happy Spring!! I have been waiting for this day, the one that brings me more daylight. Last year, we enjoyed it a day earlier as the equinox was on the 19th, but, this year it is back to its normal March 20th? Perhaps this is a sign? The getting back to normal that we have all been looking forward to? Spring is the renewal of sorts, so I can only guess that bringing us back to where we belong can be ours soon. It cannot be soon enough, but, before we rush into it all, let us no lose the lesson in all of this. Do you think there is a lesson in here somewhere?

Caught in this feeling, igniting
Far and away
A pendulum swings
Back to you
Again

And yet again, spring does not disappoint.

Beauty is everywhere it seems, but, it will be arriving in abundance, there is certainly enough evidence. I look around me and even the air smells different. There is hope blowing in the breeze today, renewal of life, things to come our way. What did you do on your first day of spring?

I cannot help but feel that this is all pointing in the right direction, giving us direction, a new place to start. What will you do, or where will you go, when the sun shines in your direction?

All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.

The Naming of Cats

The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
