Lost and found is my eureka! blog, my rediscovery of my short fiction and poetry submissions published in literary magazines and university literary journals some decades ago. Interspersed, occasionally, with more recent, hitherto unpublished pieces.
As the annual miracle of spring proceeds with lengthening daylight hours, brilliant sunshine leaping through the windows of our house, our winter-languishing, pampered little dogs resonate with re-awakening.
They imperiously insist we be roused from still-deep sleep to ourselves respond with joyous welcome to this change in our weather fortunes, an event that so enlivens and exquisitely enhances the lives of all animate creatures.
Through layers of snow and ice not yet completely receded, the news of a brightly-heralded seasonal change has been communicated well to the residents of our garden soil, as they hesitantly lift green shoots and bravely assert an early presence.
A flashpoint for our own delight in a season returning, our existence suddenly takes on fresh, dewy-new dimensions, senses quickening to the early-morning songs of purple finches, cardinals, joyful chickadees, surrendering themselves to a paroxysm of pure unadulterated pleasure of life.
