Resting, Spring clearing

[rrrstop]

Is it not Nature truly, to walk and to rest
In a garden partly of human planting?
To wonder that it is too early in the season
For most of these bushes to flower,
Yet gaze across rolling fields
To stands of spring trees fully leaved?

I sense a quietness of the air, latent with warmth.
The first-hatched insects buzz around.
The path between trees winds down that a-way,
Brown and damp beneath the ferns and oaks.
The call of a sunlit bird harkens, though,
"Were you waiting for me?"

[Poeticpiers]

Spring comes early this year well in advance of the usual. I enjoy knowing I cant alter nature decision but wonder what it portends for the future

Yes, Spring comes early some years.

This was of a memory from Winterthur in Delaware, USA, from probably twenty-five or so years ago. A beautiful place at the time, but somewhat sad in my memory now.
