Merry Christmas/April Fools Day

Merry Christmas ... April Fools!

Earlier this past week ... people were calling into TELEPHONE TIME ... with the greeting "
Merry Christmas"
. Further north, they had nearly two feet of snow; one lady
called in to say that a lot of her neighbors had signs on their lawns: "FREE SNOW".



Here's how it looked before the big snow




Here's some pix on AFTER




Now .. after some torrential rain ... most of the snow is gone again ... & here's what I found



LOOKS LIKE IT'S TIME TO TROT OUT MY POEM ON SPRING ... ENTITLED

" THE SMILE OF SPRING"


The Sun in Spring is a smile

That warms the heart & soul.

It's a PROMISE: in a short while,

We'll not fear Winter's threats!




GREEN grass & buds feed nature's pets.

GREEN tips of tulips, daffodils, and more.

GREEN thumb: twitches and frets.

GREEN: the Victor's colors; Winter is defeated!



GOLDEN Sunshine wraps us like a warm shawl.

Winter's breath still can chill!

GOLDEN Sunshine washes the air-cleanses all.

Breathe deeply of the new freshness.



April Showers bring us flowers in May.

Winter is lovely, but, spring is a joy!

The Nature that was asleep tumbles out to play.

Welcome - SPRING - God's Promise come true!
