Once Again
Once Again
Once again
Change reigns
Crisp spring dawns
Birds trill songs
Sun warmed earth eases
Iced patch still teases
Worms wiggle out new mud trenches
To be eaten as birdie munches.

"The swiftest things are the softest things. A bird is active, because a bird is soft. A stone is helpless, because a stone is hard. The stone must by its own nature go downwards, because hardness is weakness. The bird can of its nature go upwards, because fragility is force. In perfect force there is a kind of frivolity, an airiness that can maintain itself in the air... Angels can fly because they can take themselves lightly." - G.K. Chesterton
