Spring has Sprung

Here we are in the depths of winter and already the spring flowers are here - jonquils, daffodils, freisias and hyacinths.
Which is all very lovely, but what are we going to do when we are flowerless in spring?

Here's a haunting wee piece  - from the BBC's "The Shadowline".


This is Emily Parker -  'Pause'. 
Here's the lyrics...All very sad.

Who am I now without your love?
Who am I alone in a day that has gone?
Without your love to return upon
I'm a featherless bird in a sky so absurd
Why oh why's there so much movement
 When all I long for is to lay down in love's pause
And dream I know something of truth
Oh hide me deeper in your peace further
And lose me in this greed i've found in your need.
