hello, march

Once again, it is a new month, full of promise and possibility. Thirty-one {well, now thirty} days lying ahead on my calendar, waiting to be filled. New months are glorious. Welcome, March!

March means a new header {look up!}, a new desktop background for my computer {this one! from free people}, and a new season ushered in {spring! <3}.

Here is a springtime poem to get you in the mood. It's from my story I wrote for Nanowrimo back in November. The story was divided into four parts, one for each season, and each part started off with a poem in this format. This, obviously, is the one for spring. :)  

SPRING

springtime

how fresh and peaceful

new and uplifting and graceful

it is white sheets on laundry lines

billowing like windblown vines

it is bouquets of blossoming flowers

petals wet from mid-morning showers

it is baby animals opening their eyes

birds' and bunnies' first cries

it is green trees and meadows of grass

water in brooks falls like shards of glass

it is kite tails and butterflies

rising higher through blue skies

thus ends winter's strife

here comes the joyful renewal of life

springtime

I almost forgot! Today is someone very special's birthday...No, not Justin Bieber. Don't be silly! It's Ron Weasley's birthday! Happy birthday to him! :D  Hope your first day of March was spectacular! {Whoa, that is a lot of exclamation points there.}
