Spring angst

What is it with spring? Too much focus on cycles, renewal, birth, discovery, awakening… and everything happens so fast! After the long winter months, such sudden change is overwhelming. Very much a jolt into being, action, attention.

But here I am bemoaning what I’ve craved for so long. Only bitter of having lost the connection with nature, the nonchalant ease of seeing the true visage of each flower, acquired over the summer months. I will find it again, though, and walk the meadows and glades unaware of how quickly those days will pass too.
