March 31st.
Monday.
The start of the week and the end of a month.
My month.
The month where the last sign ends and the first sign begins.
You could say that the Persians have had it right all along-- the first day of spring, March 20th, is the new year.
Winter ends, spring begins.
do you take note of first and last days?
The end of March.
Bittersweet.
What will April bring?
Showers?
Strawberries?
Field grown rhubarb?
Out of the hothouse, into the sun, into the ground.
New beginnings make me fearful and giddy all at the same time.
remember you can always start your year over.
I can't tell you how excited I get during spring! I love seeing all the new fruits and vegetables come in. I bought some strawberries from florida over the weekend and the were so sweet! I'm getting too ahead of myself, but I'm even dreaming about cherries, apricots, nectarines... patience, patience. these photos are too beautiful!
