It’s this: she has a counterpart, a loving husband, Who is a great, safe, front seat driver, And patient to the nth degree.

Spring Sunrise The golden sun creates shafts of light through the budding trees. Brilliance showers down through green-gold leaves. Robins, little orange suns themselves, bounce through tiny blossoms of blue, A cardinal dips his bill in his favorite color, the red of raspberry jelly in the bird feeder. Sunlight sparkles on the surface of the pond, riffled by our resident mallards. A chipmunk surveys it all atop his favorite perch, the rock wall of the waterfall. Cottontails, four of them, chase each other in the mating ritual of spring. A beautiful start to a day in early May.
