Be Careful What You Wish For...

For the past couple of months I have been whining and belly aching about winter and how badly I wanted it to be done and over with.  I was sick of snow, and cold.  I wanted the warmth of spring.

Apparently the Great Maker heard my whine... er... wish, and decided to grant it.

Poof!   Its springtime in Colorado.

Springtime in Colorado is a time for rebirth and regrowth.  Its warmth and sunshine.  Its brightly colored flowers and lush green trees.  Its the birds and the bees, and baby animals.

Its pollen and hail storms, rain and mud.  Its mosquitoes and flies.  Its warm manure piles cooled by southerly winds.  Its cold and allergy season, and I am currently suffering from both. 

We had a short hail storm the day before yesterday with dime sized chunks of ice pelting us at 50 mph.  This evening's forecast... 40% chance of snow.  The same is predicted for tomorrow night.

So tell me again, why was I so excited about the coming of spring, because I seem to have forgotten.

    If I can add it here's a poem to spring:
     Waiting for spring
         with baited breath
         As we emerge from
         winter's death

         A chance to be reborn
         refreshed anew
         First flowers of spring
         shake their lovely heads
         as the bees debut

         As the days progress
         my friends arrive, little
         green lizards, frogs and
         such
         Filling my garden with
         everything I love so
         much

         Gently green my Garden
         thrives and grows
         Lovely in the morning
         light and evenings glow.

         Spring had arrived.

    Enjoy your spring.....toodles...Sandi

    Sounds like you're getting off lightly - heard of a tornado in your state on Thursday

    Well, I'd add short skirts and low cut tops, and open toed shoes and skimpy see through panties...but that's just me!
