Spring has sprung! The first signs of new life are making themselves known with small flowers and green shoots.
Where almost all is grey and brown, there is green now to be found.
Amongst the leaves of yesteryear the new blooms of today reach for the light.
The sweet vibrancy of the new spring green.
Snowflakes they are not, but snowbells they are called.
Soon there will be new life to replace the dry husks of yesteryear.
Spring will start anew with this year's colouring book.
The light arrives with longer days as the long dark of the night recedes.
Fruit they maybe, but not for you and me.
Of the year past and the year today, now side by side.
Vivid colour of vivid life.
T'is a strange thing, flowers before leaves. But there you have it. Nature knows best.
Ah, one of the Spring greens I enjoy best, especially in a few recipes.
