April 22
...serving up your daily dish.
For winter's rains and ruins are over,
And all the season of snows and sins;
The days dividing lover and lover,
The light that loses, the night that wins;
And time remembered is grief forgotten,
And frosts are slain and flowers begotten,
And in green underwood and cover
Blossom by blossom the spring begins.
Algernon Charles Swinburne (1837–1909)

April showers bring May flowers
and the Mayflower brings Pilgrims ;-)
(Not NJ's Garrison Keiler* for nothing)
(*or something like that)

Do not be deceived..."April is the cruelest month," as T.S. Eliot wrote.
Or is it the promise of renewal, of another chance at reaching what we think we so desire, each spring?
This will be my first Spring as a resident of Montclair. What will I find?
