Hello, Spring...

Are you really here?
Hard to tell. Of
course, this is
what Nature excels at,
creating these puzzling
scenarios where what
we assume is
confounded by her
impish whims and
conceits, compelled
as she is to remind
us time and again
stretching backwards
and forward throughout
endless time, that
she may deign to favour
and just as readily
withdraw her favours
as she and Fortune
discuss issues beyond
the ken of mere mortals.
Yes, the vernal equinox
has arrived, and the
Northern Hemisphere
that has trudged
through a long, inclement
winter has been
greeted by a delay in
spring's entrance as
snow once again
blankets the landscape
and prudence cautions
patience.
