Spring?

When I started off on my walk this morning I really felt as if Spring had sprung. The crocuses had pushed their way through the grass, although they were just purple spikes waiting for the warmth of the sun to invite them to open. The birds were singing beautifully all around me. The sun was shining between the trees and had a little warmth in it, and all seemed calm.

And then..... I followed the path out of the woods, the sun went behind a cloud, the wind hit me and I heard one little bird cheeping in the distance. Spring was still a bit of a dream.
