April-foolish trick
Snow last night a fairyland
Turned to ice today
Sidewalk crackling sounds
Signal walk at your own risk
Wise to wait for spring

Sometimes everything has to be enscribed across the heavens so you can find the one line already written inside you. Sometimes it takes a great sky to find that small, bright, and indescribable wedge of freedom in your own heart. David Whyte

You really captured exactly this not quite spring time.
I have been scanning some old photos, and there was one of Cathedral Rock covered in snow in April, some many years ago. I decided to wait a few more weeks before moving the house plants onto the patio.
Thank you.
May your day be a peaceful one. 🌵
Good idea to wait to move house plants with this unpredictable weather. The apartment manager here decided to put out the patio furniture this past week and now it looks forlorn with snow on it.
True reminder of Spring time that has come. Although, where I am there is still a little bit of snow.
We usually have some snow in April but since it was 70 degrees last Sunday I thought we had seen the end of it.
Lovely, we have had 60’s then snow, hail, sun again! Love this haiku
It’s crazy! Thanks for your comment.
yes!
We often get a little snow in April just to make sure it isn’t a clear run to spring 🙂 So far just a few tiny sprinkles, I hope spring returns for you soon.
Last night it snowed about five inches. Today it is melting some and quite beautiful. Yes, it’s not a clear run to spring.
well I am enjoying the warmth here and not missing the cruel April fools weather up North…fell on the ice one too many times…still feel aches just thinking about it 🙂
Falling on ice is the worst. I avoid icy sidewalks even if it means staying home. Your warmth does sound nice.
I shall attempt to send some your way😊☀️
We have been told by neighbors to never expect the last frost to occur before April 15, a date which is easy to remember! Right now, looks we’re neck and neck for that to happen this year as weather forecast does not predict temps below freezing through this week. I’m sure they’re a little fearful, as I am, to look much past that “magical” date.
Best wishes for the last freeze to be on time. 🙂
Well, I waited until “the coast was clear.” It’s been four days now since 4/15 with nary an icy droplet or surface particle to be seen, even since earlier last week, if I recall correctly. Matter of fact, it’s been darn near summerlike here for the past week or so, and thankfully w/o the standard Southern summertime humidity. Husband even said it reminds him of CA weather, which is the main thing I miss since moving away from there. I am basking in it, at least spiritually if not as much physically!
Wonderful! Enjoy your warm days. Spiritual basking is the best.
