What do you think is the story that nature has to tell at this time of the year? Remember that spring arrives after winter, a season in which it is very cold and animals and plants remain dormant or asleep. How is this season different? What are the feelings that these sights and sounds invoke in us?
*The story that nature has to tell is of the joy and merriment of life. Spring is the season when the snow melts and the trees and soil are exposed to sunlight, prompting them to grow leaves, and dormant plant roots to ‘spring’ up suddenly with new growth. The blooming of flowers follows, filling the air with the scent of pollen. Animals, having grown lean and weary during the cold winter when food is scarce, now enjoy the bounty of nature. The sights and sounds of new life, vibrant flowers and happy animals are extremely uplifting as we too, are indeed a part of nature and closely linked to the cycle of the seasons.
