All old snow and muddy ruts and dead branches...It feels the best on your cheek, though: sunny, breezy, and just barely moist.laurasalashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807781795919555208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-77832979897447701452010-02-27T16:05:17.971-05:002010-02-27T16:05:17.971-05:00I'm listening to the purr of April Poetry Mont...I'm listening to the purr of April Poetry Month and working on my latest project.<br /><br />I thought since you enjoy poetry that I'd invite you to contribute your list of favorite poems to my survey.

I have brought my front porch geraniums into my classroom to live on the window sill through the winter for two years now. A couple of weeks ago, a crocus came up in one of the geranium pots! Some silly squirrel transplanted one of my crocuses last summer and gave me an early hint of spring! How fun to see a crocus blooming INSIDE with 8 inches of snow (and more falling) OUTSIDE!!!Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2373615867496327293.post-64457140199756210202010-02-26T12:09:46.854-05:002010-02-26T12:09:46.854-05:00Thanks, Laura and Martha!
