Oh fickle spring!


You shine enticing warmth, then blast with hail stones. You attack with fierce wind, then download your wet. You bite with cold, then archly present a rainbow, and smile as if to say, 'This is August. What did you expect?'

Today was just that mix for me - rain, hail and sunshine - and altogether delightful. I enjoyed a wonderful walk even with that mix and saw tui feasting in a tree full of blossom (photos on my blog) - today truly was a gift.

It reminds me of the little rhyme..from the other side of the world..
Small April said "I'm going to cry ..please give me a cloud to wipe my eye..
then April fool she laughed instead and spread a rainbow overhead!"

What a delightful rhyme Joan - I've never heard it before. That's exactly what today was like. Thank you.
