Mary Lee, you are right ... the dark helps us appreciate the light, but sometimes I just know I could do without those sub-zero February days. :) Karen Edmisten https://www.blogger.com/profile/04446214835142625161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-86021791291680106122015-03-08T10:25:06.230-05:002015-03-08T10:25:06.230-05:00Now that we're past it I can say this -- we ne...Now that we're past it I can say this -- we need that awful dark coldness to help us fully appreciate spring with completely full hearts, don't we?!?Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-21006570047769277662015-03-06T20:09:02.669-06:002015-03-06T20:09:02.669-06:00I love your poem.

Growing up in western NY, it was always gray and it seemed like we simply slogged through the days. Many years later, I'm still happy to make it through this month.

January at least has New Year's Day and Epiphany and all the end of the Christmas season. It's gay and festive and the snow is still a welcome diversion. But February has little to offer. The beginning of Lent. Cold. More snow and more snow and more snow. The only happy thing February has ever brought me was Anthony. I'm quite glad to see it gone.
