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!

Is It Really Spring?

ALMOST SPRING ... most of the snow is gone, but, it's still chilly.




.. WELL ... maybe I'm over my "pout" ... none of the four new blog spots are as easy & satisfactory as my deceased AOL journal ... damn them. Losing four years of illustrated diary entries is a great loss. It is also a loss that AOL also discontinued the free webpages; I lost all my links there. Of the four new spots ... BLOGspot is somewhat the choice.
