water

Winter is the season of ice and snow. Spring is the season of water. Ice on rivers and ponds, what there was of it, is gone. Ducks and geese to be seen there. Ducks are the personification of buoyancy in almost every way; in their spirit, in flight, bobbing on the water. They gladden the heart. Kayaks on cars, and boats on trailers on Route 7. Fisherman heading to the Otter Creek in Middleburg. Sound of rain on the bricks outside the front door.
