Are the palest amethyst. Every limpid brook is singing
Of the lure of April days;
Every piney glen is ringing
With the maddest roundelays.Come and let us seek together
Springtime lore of daffodils,
Giving to the golden weather
Greeting on the sun-warm hills.” ~ Lucy Maud Montgomery - “The only thing that could spoil a day was people. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.” ~ Ernest Hemingway
