We celebrated the spring equinox
With snow and blue skies.
Ice drops
Sparkled from daring buds —
The fuzzy catkins
Looked lovely in their cold diamond earrings,
And the hazel flowers
Glittered in the sunlight.
Even though it was still winter on a spring day —
Those sparkly skies were beautiful and uplifting.

Sometimes Spring she moves slowly.
I appreciate your eyes to see and savor the blue sky sparkling
even as she putters along about her unfolding:)

My favorite part of our Ice Storms this winter (and believe me, there were NOT many favorites)–were seeing the ICE glisten on the trees when the sun came out… You got some great pictures of this!!!!!! I have more of this kind to share sometime.
