It is the first day of March, and the sun shine was bright white this afternoon, and the wind was fierce.
Technically, it is almost Spring and Winter still clings, as the temperature drops as soon as the sun sets.
The signs of Spring are palpable and Eleanor, Queen of the Meadow is full of buds on her branches, some are beginning to open.
The Winter Angel lingers, knowing that the timelines are shifting and the new season is almost here. Appalachian folk know that the weather can be fickle until May, hence names like Blackberry Winter
These first days of the sun warming the Earth and all inhabitants is a mighty boost of seratonin that lifts our Spirits.
And soon the Winter Angel will welcome the Angel of Spring and the Spirit of Rejuvenation. And Mother Earth will don her new attire in all her finery.
