it's spring again.

the earth has completed it's annual circuit,
and the astral orbit of awesome has placed
our A*s in line to get the party started right.
uh-huh;
the equinox rocks my socks off.
spring is here.
vernal type rebirth business.
it's good stuff, yeah?
little lime green spikes are poppin'
out from under the jaundiced grass and moss.
even teenier, tinier little nubbins are hangin'
off of some of the hardier trees, too.
that's life waking up.
nature's first green is gold,
but her first gold is absolutely, unmistakably brown...
...and more than those verdant tones,
it's absolutely every-freakin'-where.
the snow's mostly gone already,
and there's mud where the ice used to be.
we get a whole season dedicated to wet earth over here.
mud season.
it's a big deal in the woodsly goodness.
the still-light-out night out times are staying less frosty,
and the days of death, dearth, despair, and doo-doo
are definitely done.
it's mutha-b!tchin' spring, ninjas.
druid like robe wearing sacrifice-stabbin' cosmic calendar
monolithic stonehenge type sh!t.
you got it;
spring.
it's also my ma's berfday.
of all the birthdays out there,
that's a pretty easy one to remember, y'know?
so,
happy B-day, ma.
nice work, being born an' that.
moms are kinda rad.
mine is no exception,
and the fact that she shares her big moment
with ma nature's big re-emergence
is pretty flippin' neat-o.
it's spring, duders.
bouncy, bouncy, slinky coils, even.
today is the day,
on all counts,
by all accounts,
and it is all really happening.
i remain grateful for this time i've been given,
and even moreso,
i remain
never quiet, never soft.....
