Speaking of Jeanette Gallagher … Jeanette’s grandson Craig’s poem appeared here yesterday. We could use a little seasonal rebirth, don’t you think?

Season of Rebirth
By Jeanette Gallagher

April brings the joy of rebirth
Nature aspires to gift the earth
After winter’s hibernation
As certain as inspiration and creation

Bulbs planted deep beneath the soil
Like death waiting for resurrection
While above ground the preparation
For endless cycles of life, death and rebirth

Spring blossoms arrayed in all their glory
Once again repeats the heart of story
As life emerges upon the earth while beauty
Of tulips color April and joy fills the soul
