A Prayer in Spring


"Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers in the flowers today;
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."

-  Robert Frost -

Wishing you all the very best at this special time of the year.

  1. And THANK YOU so much, for bothering to comment that you noticed (and like) my new Yellow Blog Look. :-))))))))

    I have never seen this particular Larsson painting, before... "The Home's Good Fairy"... It captivated me. Had to use it, for my Header pic, for a while.

  4. Happy equinox and Ostara blessings to you!

    Thank you for the sweet words about my kitty. I checked my spam folder, but couldn't find the comment - sometimes they get swallowed up, I think, but thank you nonetheless for the thought.

    Have a lovely day!
