Thoughts about Spring

“Spring is the inspiration, fall the expiration. Both seasons have their equinoxes, both their filmy, hazy air, their ruddy forest tints, their cold rains, their drenching fogs, their mystic moons; both have the same solar light and warmth, the same rays of the sun; yet, after all, how different the feelings they inspire! One is morning, the other the evening; one is youth, the other is age.” -- American Naturalist John Burroughs, 1876
