Season of Hope and Renewal - a photo on Flickriver

            When my Crabapple tree starts showing its new red leaves in spring, I can't help but be thankful for nature's renewal.

"Spring
The hopeless hope is one ..
of the early harbingers of spring,
bespeaking an innocent belief that the world might right its wrongs and reverse its curses
simply because the trees are coming into leaf."
~ Aleksandar Hemon
