Fifty Shades of Spring: 50 of the best p William Wordsworth, Kahlil Gibran, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, James Joyce, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, John Milton, Henry Alford, Katherine Mansfield, Robert Browning, Rudyard Kipling & Phillip Henry Savage
Nature’s year begins. Temperatures slowly rise. Green gradually becomes the dominant colour of the landscape. Rain from drenching showers to windy squalls help nourish the land. Nature has embarked on her epic symphony of the year.
Each year, each season, each day is a little different from her previous work. Days lengthen as her canvas and palette grows more confident. Colour emerges from the shades of monochrome. She is at work on tasks everywhere.

Naturally our classic poets rise to the challenge knowing that they will only be able to detail fragments or broad brush stroke the whole. They ponder, they write, they wonder.
