The blue beyond
The spring equinox is when day and night are equally long:
A perfect balance that was reflected in the azure blue
Of open water and the white cold of the ice still left on the lake.
Even the clouds seemed to find harmony
In their own reflections.
As for that bluer than a jay’s wing sky —
All I could do was to stand and gaze in wonder.

Perfect blue. Spring and fall are my two favorite seasons.

It’s minus 5 C this morning, so winter is still here, but it has been warmer during the days, and we’ve had winds, so maybe that is why the ice has melted so fast.
