Further to my last post ...........
The crows and rooks are spread out across a sunny field as if they are out for a days metal detecting.
The dark conifers stand out in the wood like tower blocks amongst the green green dwellings and newly coming leaves of the oaks and horse chestnuts.
Everything is slowly being saturated in sunlight. If I had a bar of soap I could wash in it. It is plentifully generous.
Suddenly cherry blossom is not sagging and drab. It bounces on the branches - maribou and plume. Puffed up posies jumping and jostling in the sun streaked warm breeze.
There is nothing that isn't more cheerful in this sunshine.You could look in the backs of cupboards and in remote and obscure small zoo's. In both cases everything you found would be cheerful. Fact.
The sun shouts about how it will bring elderberry and blackberry to come to be. How it will grow and harden nut shells and make apples swell pregnant with promise.
You think I'm a bit tipsy on the warmth and the sunlight ?
Let me tell you ( quite sternly ) that today is perfect English spring time and I'm inebriated, paralytic, sozzled, intoxicated on it.
Excuse me while I wipe my mouth on my hand and take another swig.
