Winter Yields (to) Spring

The Earth softens underfoot
streams flow with childlike laughter
rose and amber hues of buds forming
the squish and squelch of footsteps
no destination determined
ambling over leaves of seasons gone by
listening to the babble and chitter chatter
of unleashed dams and songbirds
giving the mind over to the senses
awakening together with the gentle
emergence of spring.

Friends awakened by April’s new moon at our Wildlife Sanctuary:
Ferns, Spicebush, wood frogs, peepers, tree frogs, painted turtles, pond life, wood anemone, red maple, p***y willow, birch, spotted salamander, cherry, big brown bats, groundhogs, chipmunks, flocks, daffodils, crocuses, snowdrops, forsythia… these and more are emerging from sleep.

The full pink moon is upon us. Spring is awakening. We have many ways to connect
& align within oneself 🌈🍀
