Any thoughts about the coming of spring?
When I was growing up, it seemed that the farm came alive in the spring.
Sure there was a lot of snow melting and muddy days but there was a renewed sense of life as spring unfolded.
I thought it would be great to share some thoughts, poems, pictures, now that March has arrived. Here, in Ontario, it came in like a lamb, which does not bode well for the end of March but we will just have to wait and see.
Here is a photo that I shared on my blog at PM_Poet Writer.
It is a Surge milking pail that I retrieved
from the farm when it was replaced
by newer milking systems.
I treasure it as it sits at our front doorstep
in the city!
Each summer, it hosts some red geraniums,
the kind my Mother always had blossoming.
Looking forward to any comments
about "spring" in your part of the
"farm, ranch, rural" setting!

Hey Deborah,
So glad to see that list of details--reminds how busy spring gets on the farm!
The smell of soil is one that always stays in my memory.
Best in these March days!
