On the hinge.

Spring tiptoes into the earth and the heart. Maybe the wind shifts. Suddenly the bare branches are lined with pink blossoms. Birds become our loudest neighbors. Green pushes at the seams of soil, and the sun lingers a little longer each day. What a difference a week can make.

Headlines of good news for two days in a row! I am thrilled to hear that the CPT hostages have been freed. What an answer to prayer. In our celebration, let’s be even more aware of Jill Carroll and the other Iraqi nationals and foreign aid workers that still await release.

Yes, Erin, Spring is in the air! Bird hunting season has evidently opened here in Manitoba - the cats are loving it.

What a great thing - to have two good news headlines in a row!

Experimental: On the hinge.


Spring creaks into the earth
and the heart shifts like the wind.

Suddenly the bare branches are lined with pink blossoms.
Birds become our noisy neighbors.

Green pushes at the seams of soil,
and the sun lingers in the doorway of each day.

What a difference
a week can make.




(I like your writing.)
