Spring has Sprung
John Magnuson
Spring has Sprung
Serendipitously,
Spring springs ubiquitously,
And flowers bloom deliriously.
The Trillium
Mid-summer I look to see,
Where the Trillium went.
Now I remember,
It comes back each Lent.
The Crocus
My wife and I sat admiring our garden,
Then we both squirmed as something tried to poke us.
Sure enough, some aggressive little Crocus!
Yellows
Forsythia, Primrose, Tulips, Daffodils and Witch Hazel,
Saffron harbingers of spring.
Our gardens do relax us.
Until we realize, it’s time to do our taxes!

Beginning
And with that for you to dwell upon, here follows a recap of the Rotary meeting. PP Mayor Jason Whalen led us in the salute to the flag. Robert Peterson followed with a stirring invocation. PP Gary Fulton at the Paul Harris desk and Gary Barton acted as Sgt. at Arms. PP Bob Zawilski was photographer and PP Ole as scrivener – that is a $17.95 word for scribe or reporter.
