As we depart from the chill that winter forces upon us all, we begin to appreciate the light-hearted spirit that is the essence of spring.
There are so many wonderful things about spring. It is a season all about new opportunities and possibilities that help us all form a bright, child-like optimism.
Spring tends to represent the rebirth of life, a new warmth that comes to comfort and help you out of the bitter intensity of winter. Spring is also the time for flowers blooming, and the sun coming back to greet us all with an equally warm, bright smile.
I’m afraid you just don’t get any of this glory in the merciless depths of winter.
Celebrating the Beauty of Spring
Not only does all our flora reawaken to the coming of spring, but our wondrous wildlife begins to return to its original habitat. The very phenomena that have always stunned many of us, from their dazzling demeanour to their colourful and intriguing appearance.
I would like to say that spring has always delighted myself, from its poetic and metaphorical interpretations to the lively and re-awakening essence it has bestowed upon our eyes to witness. I hope this spring in Sandgate and our stunning surroundings bring you all a bright and hopeful future ahead. Thank you
