“Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.”

Robert Frost

Now is truly the time

To emerge from hibernation

And smell the fragrant new blooms

Now is truly the time

To frolic in a greening meadow

And escape your confined room

Now is the time

To welcome the songbirds

Back to your patio bird station

Now is the time

To gaze in awe and admiration

Observing new life with elation

Now is the time

To put on your hiking boots

And climb a sun-drenched hillside

Now is the time

To eagerly take in the view

With your dog by your side

Now is the time

To wander into the woods

Refreshing your heart and soul

Now is the time

To truly look and listen

At all the wonders to behold

Do you believe in magic?

 Believe in the magic that can set you free

Believe in the Magic of Spring
