In our house .
This is the bleakest time of the year . Cold , could be some snow to come .
The garden , people will say , looks bleak but I know its not .
Just under the earth the first stages of new growth are stirring with the promise of shoots and stems to come .They move gently like a baby rustling in it's cot .
Later when it seems wet as well as bleak the earth is even more deceptive .
Plants are almost ready to push through . They stand in the hall way of their earthy home putting on their hats and coats . Cheerful with chatter and anticipation , they clamour for the door to open and spring to begin .
This I know , for it is faithful and true every year . It is something you can depend on . Fresh beginnings and new growth .
And in our house I hear you ask ?
In our house the Spring will just have to follow us ....... for we have already begun .

Healing continues. Everything will be reinvigorated. Like spring follows winter year after year. May you all be well. Love.

DeleteI always think February is the bleakest month.
ReplyDeleteMe too , it just feels like progress is being made and of course I like that .
DeleteI like these bleak days, so long as the weather is something more than grey and warm. Snow in March is a bit much though.
ReplyDeleteSort of stark but sunny .You sound a bit more cheerful . Are you ?
