"When you drink the water, remember the spring."

Chinese proverb

 

"Water flows humbly to the lowest level.

Nothing is weaker than water,

Yet for overcoming what is hard and strong,

Nothing surpasses it."

Lao Tzu (Laozi, lived in the 6th century BC)

 

"Water is H2O, hydrogen two parts, oxygen one, but there is also a third thing, that makes it water and nobody knows what that is."

D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930)

 

"Water, the Hub of Life.

Water is its mater and matrix, mother and medium.

Water is the most extraordinary substance!

Practically all its properties are anomalous, which enabled life to use it as building

material for its machinery.

Life is water dancing to the tune of solids."

Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, Hungarian Biochemist, 1937 Nobel Prize for Medicine, 1893-1986

 

"The underlying attraction of the movement of water and sand is biological. If we look more deeply we can see it as the basis of an abstract idea linking ourselves with the limitless mechanics of the universe."

Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe (1900–1996), landscape architect, garden designer, architect and author

 

"Our bodies are molded rivers."

Novalis (Georg Friedrich Freiherr von Hardenberg, 1772–1801)

Even though the magic of birds singing and flowers blooming and green returning is still happening this spring, somehow this celebration of nature seems muffled this year by the pall of pandemic. I still admire the beauty of spring, but my heart is going out to all those who are suffering - may Heaven help us all ...

 

"We stand now where two roads diverge. but unlike the roads in Robert Frost's familiar poem, they are not equally fair. The road we have long been traveling is deceptively easy, a smooth superhighway on which we progress with great ease, but at its end lies disaster. The other fork of the road - the one less traveled by - offers our last, our only chance to reach a destination that assures the preservation of the earth."

~ Rachel Carson, "Silent Spring"

These bright blooms come out early every year at the edge of a neighbor's property- so cheery to see! If THEY think it's spring, that's good enough for me!

My farewell greeting to a fabulous spring month of March !!!

 

Explored: 31.03.2014

 

Spring flowers covered in an April snowfall from a couple of years back. It looks like we're going to be in for more of the same this year. The forecast for the first day of spring in Boston is yet another Nor'easter, with 10 to 14 inches of snow expected.

 

So for now, it looks as if my dream is a dream deferred.

Not sure which species these are ... Rich tells me that we have at least Common & Blue Marsh (purple) violets at the wetlands. I've also found some white ones. Rich? Paula? you all around for an ID? The leaves on these are rather heart-shaped but long, not round hearts. I thought that might rule out Common.

 

In any case, a zillion violets in bloom right now in wet areas in N. Georgia. Rainy & cool here. Have a blessed Sunday!

¡FELIZ MAYO!

La primavera es la estación del Re-nacimiento por excelencia. Somos fértiles semillas cósmicas, germinemos de nuevo, para que el corazón lleno de alegría florezca y llevemos la dicha de la floración primaveral a todas las estaciones de nuestra vida, que podamos recomenzar cada vez con nuevos bríos, con la fuerza misma de la primavera en flor.

------------------

HAPPY MAY!

Spring is the Re-birth season par excellence. We are fertile cosmic seeds, let us germinate again, so that the heart full of joy blossoms and we bring the happiness of spring flowering to all the seasons of our life, that we can restart each time with new vigor, with the force of spring in flower.

2011 spring beauty and tiny details !! john hoellerich foto. fotogjohnh!

Last week, spring just exploded on the lower elevations of the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. This image was taken on Friday 3/30/2007.

Ett av mina stora sommarnöjen är att njuta av naturen, såväl blommor som insekter men framförallt fåglar. Att besöka Tåkern (Norra Europas finaste fågelsjö) var ett sommarnöje jag såg framemot. Jag fick med en av mina systersöner, som hade otroligt roligt på bland annat Estelles sagostig - så roligt att han inte kunde låta bli att springa i förväg för att se om han kunde hitta Hasse Hare.

Some spring flowers in the garden, hooray!

This newborn calf can't be more than two days old and still isn't the most sure on its feet yet. It was pretty fun watching it trot around after a little nursing. Newborns are one of my favorite things in Spring. Keller, Texas, USA, March 2015

I spent a day yesterday at the Morris Arboretum in Philadelphia, Pa. What a great way to spend a spring day!

Leaves starting to emerge on one of our trees, a sure sign of spring.

And finally the fresh green leaves of spring have burst open.

ODC - March 19th ~ SOOC

 

I saw these flowers as I drove home today and took this with my Coolpix L110 as I drove by. I put it on zoom and got this photo...no processing or anything...just straight out of the camera. It is so good that spring has finally arrived.

You know spring has sprung when you find a complete field of naturally occurring flowers. Even this photo doesn't do justice to how beautiful this really was.

Erinnerungen an den letztjährigen Frühling.

Most crocus flowers are a pale shade of purple. Some of them are yellow though which makes them stand out in a large area of them.

 

The flowers are famous for blooing very early on in the spring time. Sometimes they come out as early as February.
