Although yesterday was the first official day of Spring, we have been seeing signs of Spring in our yard for a few weeks now. Like these crocus blooms from a few weeks ago.
I love when they pop up through the leaf mulch from the Fall before.
They add such a bright burst of color.
You might think that after thousands of years of coming up too soon and getting frozen, the crocus family would have had a little sense knocked into it.

In a way, I’m glad that they haven’t had any sense knocked into them.
They bring hope of the new Season, of Rebirth.
They are a sure sign that Spring will come.
And even though they may not last for long, we know that they will return again next year to alert us again that Spring will soon arrive, starting the cycle of the Seasons once again.
