Signs of Spring 2012

Spring arrived today.  The Sun crossed the celestial equator at 01:14 EDT/ 05:14 GMT, Vernal Equinox.  Spring has sprung.


The birds have returned in noisy numbers.  Plants are greening and blooming.  This first day of spring, I marveled at the wonders of life, on my small piece of Earth.

Ponder what life would be

If Earth were different

In the smallest degree
