A little Madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the King,
But God be with the Clown –
Who ponders this tremendous scene –
This whole Experiment of Green –
As if it were his own!
Emily Dickinson

I am changing how I post your much appreciated comments. Since I began the blog, I've waited to post them until I had the opportunity to respond. Sometimes that's taken a while, so I've decided to moderate them and post them as soon as possible, and then I'll respond when I get a chance.
Also, you may comment on any posts, no matter how old, and I will receive notice.

Nan, Just wanted you to know that I have nominated your blog for a Thinking Blog Award. :-)

I just love Emily Dickenson's poetry. Thank you for posting one of her poems.
ReplyDeleteOh, Rapunzel, thank you so, so much for the nomination, and for your kind words. I just today read a great quote from Mark Twain:
ReplyDelete"I can live two months on a good compliment."
How true. How warm my heart feels.
I must decline, though, because I was nominated before. Now, you may choose another blog you love to read. I will certainly be visiting the ones you mentioned.
Thank you, again, my friend.
And Literary Feline, I think we all feel "a little madness" this time of year. Mad with the warmth, the breezes, the melting snow, and something inside that can't be expressed. Thanks for stopping by.
