“There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature-the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter” ~ Rachel Carson
"If children at school can be made to understand
The cats found something to do
Like playing pretend and wishing that bird was not just a toy.
First day of spring
"No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn."
One of Edith Holden's postcards 1907 she donated to the society.

how it is just to be humane even to what we term inferior animals, it will do much to give them a higher tone and character through life."
~ John Bright
March break, a good time to learn more about nature
Like playing pretend and wishing that bird was not just a toy.
First day of spring
"No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn."
~ Hal Borland
๐๐๐But the weather forecast doesn't promise it's arrival any time soon.
So, on that note, I'll take from the cats on what to do, maybe take out my toys and paint a faraway place where spring is already in bloom.
