feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable

But guys, this will be short lived ... I just know it! Summer is coming -- really!

It is depressing in a way. The only thing of the weather that I dont really like is the muck after the big thaw. I hate the mud and squish! As soon as it gets warm, I want to be in the garden, not waiting for the ground to harden again. I watched it harden all winter!Isn't it depressing?

It's April...and the sun is splitting the trees. Think i might have potentially sunburnt my face yesterday. The evenings are cold though. (its old though. We have the term April showers in ireland for a reason. it rains alot! but i'm not complaining!)

Yes, we did. If I had to guess, I'd say about 3 or 4 inches and it's still snowing. The temps are going to stay fairly cold for the next several days so it's not going to go anywhere any time soon. I just have no patience for these spring storms, I'm so anxious for winter to end at this point.

Wow, ya'll are having snow and we didn't get hardly any this year!I'm going to have to move. Spring has arrived where I am, but I really do miss the snow. (we had a light dusting a month or two ago and everyone hurried to the grocery store for bread and milk and the schools were closed but then nothing happened. There was some snow but you could still see the grass through it.)
but with the spring there is all kinds of pollen and everyone is sneezing. I couldn't concentrate in class because people were blowing their noses and being all noisy with their allergies.

JUST KEEP SWIMMING!
JUST KEEP SWIMMING!
JUST KEEP SWIMMING, SWIMMING, SWIMMING!
WHAT DO WE DO?
WE SWIM!
SNOWING!! What is this? It's APRIL for crying out loud!!
I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
Waiting for a winter to be done.
Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
In all that I could never overcome?
rainy and cool.

Hobbes: What mood is that?
Calvin: Last-minute panic.
-9°C, but with the wind, it is -17°C
Very odd to be this cool at this time of the year... oh well. We have experienced blizzards at this time of the year, too, so I shouldn't really complain...
[p.s. I loved your description of how folks handled the snow, Shalot!]
