The trees and shrubs are showing that first sign of life after a long, cold and snowy winter in the deep south. The buds are emerging from their winter hiding place and each day brings a little more to see.
Yesterday the twig was brown and bare;
To-day the glint of green is there;
Tomorrow will be leaflets spare;
I know no thing so wondrous fair
No miracle so strangely rare.
I wonder what will next be there!
