Earth Day


With thanks to the mother of us all . . .

For sun and wind . . .

For patterned leaves . . .

For clouds and mountains, trees and sky . . .

For water flowing clean and free . . .

For blooming meadows . . .

For yellow, that brightens the world . . .

For all creatures, slow . . .

And fast . . .

For flowers . . . freely given . . .

Nature's grace notes . . .


And, of course, kittens.

And Mother Nature is celebrating in style in this part of the world. The sun is up and the sun seems to have returned following a long holiday abroad.

Spring has finally arrived at your house! Lovely photos; I tried to pick my faves but couldn't...well, maybe the kittens. ;-)
