Joy in the morning

The glaciers are melting, the ice caps are history...it is not global warming, but spring has finally shown up.  Many had thought we had entered a second ice age, but spring simple got lost en route but has finally arrived.  The geese have been standing on ice covered lakes, checking their watches and staring forlornly at the sky like people waiting for a late bus.  There is warmth, sunshine, and life again in the world, and like those flummoxed geese, we too must wait patiently for the end of winter and look expectantly ahead to spring (whatever the metaphor may be in your own life).  For joy truly does come in the morning, though dawn may be long in coming!
