First rays of spring..

On a day when the sun warmed your skin even in the wind, we sat in the garden for the first time. The first hints of Spring flood over the shoots that gingerly look out from the cloak of winter, a smile creeps across my face in a warm welcome to their daring glances.

Thoughts of long hours outside fill my mind, on foot or bicycle, I care not which. The long veil of darkness and cold falls off as the smile turns to a grin.....oh life....what a joy you are!!!!
