I spent some time outside this afternoon walking in the sunshine. How long has it been since we were graced with several consecutive days of warm sunny weather? The weather man said the last time we had such a fair stretch of days was in September!
Spring arrived this week, so I thought I’d share a poem about this blessed season.
A Prayer in Spring
by Robert Frost
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.
For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfil.
We hope you all have a relaxing Sunday, and we’ll see you at the Market.
Thanks,
Beverly
