The joy of spring...

Apr 01, 2011 20:12

Spring snowflakes rioting in the park,  I've seen my first coltsfoot.... have been able to put the rabbit out in the garden... He whizzes around in the pen, leaping with joy and then settles down to try to dig his way out....

When I get into the pen, he does a happy dance, running round and round me until I feel dizzy.

Happy bunny.

It tried to snow here today, as well!

I'm glad your bunny is able to be outside now!

It's the little things like a happy bunny lolloping around your feet that makes time stop and make me feel just so happy and still for a little while. A blessed moment, or something, an angel passing by. I'm not religious really, but the terms feel right...

Any spring flowers showing through your end? Snowdrops, and scilla here, mostly, and aconite.

I haven't seen any spring flowers yet.

I live in a neighborhood where 95% of the people
don't plant flowers.

I used to live on a 100 acre farm in Maryland.

There, the crocus, tulips, daffodils and forsythia should be in bloom.

Do you miss seeing the flowers of spring? Or can you go to a park or something?

Did you dye your rabbit a funny colour once, or am I completely imagining things?

I have been meaning to take spring photos - there are loads of lovely daffodils in Russell Square, and cherry blossoms everywhere.

Oh wow, no I've never dyed our rabbit. My daughter tried to dye her hair pink last year, though, you may be thinking of that!!

In summer, the sun turns our rabbit's grey fur sort of brown... but that's as far as it goes.

Was in London a fortnight ago, and the daffodils and other spring flowers in Hyde and St James' park were lovely, even the weather was rather grey....

Ha ha - I wonder why I thought that about the rabbit!
I remember about your daughter's hair, although I thought that was more recently - my sense of time is weird.
Spring is exciting, especially for SAD sufferers like me. I am struggling to adjust to the new brightness in the air, though. In a few weeks it will be just right.
