Because today in Montreal is very sunny ..... but very cold -15C with the wind chill factor; I wanted you all to know that very soon the days will be just as in the photograph. Today won't let you forget to take advantage of the halcyon days to come. Some Spring thoughts:March roars in like a lion so fierce, the wind so cold, it seems to pierce. The month rolls on and Spring draws near, and March goes out like a lamb so dear.
There is no foliage to compare with youngsters' sun-kissed, tousled hair: Spring's greatest joy beyond a doubt is when it brings the children out.

The Daffodils
by William Wordsworth
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A Poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed--and gazed--but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
I love this poem which I had to learn at school. Hope you enjoy it.
