"The Miracle of Spring"

 

We glibly talk

  of nature's laws

but do things have

  a natural cause?

Black earth turned into

  yellow crocus

is undiluted

  hocus-pocus.

                     (Piet Hein)

Now excuse me while I joyfully play in the dirt until I render myself so exhausted I can't move. (And I know it's not a crocus but the squirrels stole all mine...)

Rainy day Grook

SATURATION

The heavens are draining,
it's raining and raining,
and everything couldn't be wetter,
and things are so bad
that we ought to be glad:
because now they can only get better.  (Piet Hein)

At least until Irene hits...
