Spring is arriving in the Northeast! And what a sensual delight. I am moved to share all the surprises that are greeting me.
Each year, I am increasingly sensitive to the changes and transformations that surround me, it becomes an endless wonder to experience the changing of winter to spring. I find that I forget the little details that comprises Spring. When they appear, they come as a surprise, much like a gift that lands unexpectedly at the doorstep.
I am so grateful for the endless gifts that seem to actively seek to raise my joy, vibration, and thoughts to delight that I will share them here in gratitude. Please do share, what Spring surprises did you forget about? What everyday things have you noted and in seeing it, felt like it was almost like seeing life itself for the first time?
Here is my list, so far:
Longer day light in the evening - giving me more moments to relish the softness of the season. I forgot that the sun set after 8!! (How could I?)
Warmth on my skin
Tiny leaflets unfolding from the beech trees in graceful wonder
Wild flowers emerging in abundance on forest floor
Red Efts (newt like animal) crawling across the moist forest floor's leaf mould-wow so bright
Green Green grass brilliantly glowing on a rainy spring morning
Looking up and seeing tiny graceful bright green leaves on the trees
Burbling Spring runoff calling for the return of the wild to our woods
BRIGHT Gold Gold finches -who remembers how bright their sound and feathers become in their Spring joy?
Daffodils and Tulips emerging from recently frozen ground
Spring Wind... so temptingly seductive to our senses
