Braving Spring

Tomorrow is the first day of Spring.
Today we were visited by snow.
I marvel at the fortitude of flowers.
They teach me that each season
of life requires a kind of courage,
a willingness to weather
the weather that comes
our way. Each season asks, in
different ways, that we bring
our beauty to bear as best we can
wherever we find our Selves.
