Well, another winter has passed. Here it is, Good Friday, and I sit once more in the old garden where I hear no faintest echo of the rumbling of London streets nearby. The only movement I am conscious of is that of the trees shooting forth their first sprays of bright green and the only sound I hear is the blackbird's joyful song. Her song seems to well up spontaneously from the Heart of Nature, sending with it a message of peace to the Heart of the Mystery, which is man. For man alone can hear the Revelation that lies in the blackbird's song. -- Havelock Ellis |
Every hopeful, renewing Spring is the only Spring -- a perpetual astonishment. -- Ellis Peters |

Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night. -- Rainer Maria Rilke |
If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come. -- Chinese proverb |
