Words To Live By

"First a howling blizzard woke us,
Then the rain came down to soak us,
And now before the eye can focus -
Crocus."
-   Lilja Rogers

Perfect description of how the first day of Spring arrived in Austin!  Thanks to Tracey at  A Cottage Industry for her Sunday meme…Words To Live By.
