Give me the splendid silent sun
with all his beams full-dazzling.-Walt Whutman
in Just
spring when the world is mudluscious
the little
lame balloonman
whistles far and wee -EE Cummings
The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day
When the sun is out and the wind is still
You’re one month on in the middle of May.
But if you so much as dare to speak,
A cloud comes over the sunlit arch,
A wind comes off a frozen peak,
And you’re two months back in the middle of March.-Robert Frost
April is the cruelest month, breeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Dull roots with spring rain. -T.S. Eliot
A little Madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the King. -Emily Dikenson
The sky was yellow…..
and the sun was blue -Jerry Garcia/ Robert Hunter

Sweet April showers
Do spring May flowers.

At this Spring, you will find me, in all my
smiling Invisibility
Part of the play of lights and darks dancing
on the
Waters of a Sacred Well, giving Vision to the
Blind & Healing.
Here I will dwell, even in this lifetime
For I have come Home.

Behold, my friends, the spring is come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love!

Leave it to Cummings to “invent” a word; “mudluscious” It really sounds like a Springy adjective to me anyway.

~Your glorious spring dress is different, blood rises through the shoots, wind incites the day, nothing is left of your immutable soul….~
