For their boldness to burst onto the scene just before the vernal equinox even if half of them plummeted to the ground along with dropping temperatures on the equinox. Oh well, still takes guts! Is there a more triumphant sign of Spring, a more enthusiastic way to embrace the sun and all its magnitude?  The most fleeting transitions of the year, packed into these few weeks, either way you care to see it, emergence or patience…either way takes courage to awaken into this life or enticing you deeper into the one that waits…either way wants you to know you must let go of every last thing. Steel or velvety sweetness, hallelujah you carry that radiance always and forever.
