Searching for Spring

No winter lasts forever; 

no spring skips its turn. ~Hal Borland

Behold, my friends, the spring is come; the earth has gladly received the embraces of the sun, and we shall soon see the results of their love! ~Sitting Bull

Terrestrial Sea

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures. ~Henry Ward Beecher

The sea is everything. It covers seven tenths of the terrestrial globe. Its breath is pure and healthy. It is an immense desert, where man is never lonely, for he feels life stirring on all sides. ~Jules Verne

Butterfly Garden

What's a butterfly garden without

butterflies? ~Roy Rogers

Literature and butterflies are the two sweetest passions known to man. ~Vladimir Nabokov

Butterfly Happiness

I believe that if one always looked at the skies, 

one would end up with wings. ~Gustave Flaubert

Happiness is a butterfly, which when

pursued, is always just beyond your grasp,

but which, if you will sit down quietly, may

alight upon you. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Fly Away Love

You have always given me more than I gave you. 

You were the wings on which I soared. ~Lotte Lehmann

Love must have wings to fly away from love,

and to fly back again. ~Edwin Arlington Robinson

Living Wings

Time's fatal wings do ever forward fly; to

every day we live, a day we die. ~Thomas Campion

The mark of your ignorance is the depth of 

your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the

caterpillar calls the end of the world, The

Master calls the butterfly. ~Richard Bach

February Dreams

Every gardener knows that under the cloak of winter lies a miracle... a seed waiting to sprout, a bulb opening to the light, a bud straining to unfurl. And the anticipation nurtures our dream. ~Barbara Winkler

February is merely as long as is needed to

pass the time until March. ~Dr. J.R. Stockton
