Blest be the gracious Power, who taught mankind To stamp a lasting image of the mind!

George Crabbe
spring winter blow
When winter stern, his gloomy front uprears, A sable void the barren earth appears; The meads no more their former verdure boast, Fast-bound their streams, and all their beauty lost; The herds, the flocks, in icy garments mourn, and wildly murmur for the Spring's return; From snow-topp'd hills the whirlwinds keenly blow, Howl through the woods, and pierce the vales below, Through the sharp air a flaky torrent flies, Mocks the slow sight, and hides the gloomy skies.

spring heart love-is
In their choice of lovers both the male and the female reveal their essential nature. The type of human being we prefer reveals the contours of our heart.

A skilled naturalist, by filing these materials, can reconstruct the oceanic depths from which they have been uprooted. Jose Ortega y Gasset

It was only a smile, nothing more. It didn't make everything all right. It didn't make ANYTHING all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing.

Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and maybe I just witnessed the first flake melting. - Amir Khaled Hosseini
spring heart eagles
Out of my deeper heart a bird rose and flew skywards. Higher and higher did it rise, yet larger and larger did it grow. At first it was but like a swallow, then a lark, then an eagle, then as vast as a spring cloud, and then it filled the starry heavens. Out of my heart a bird flew skywards. And it waxed larger as it flew. Yet it left not my heart. Khalil Gibran

That sense – the only true patriotism – comes slowly and springs from the heart: it is founded upon respect for the family and love for the soil.

Livy

Malcolm Forbes
