A little Madness in the Spring
Is wholesome even for the King,
But God be with the Clown --
Who ponders this tremendous scene --
This whole Experiment of Green --
As if it were his own!
(Emily Dickinson)

I'll be working tomorrow, and will have to miss seeing more green at the St Patrick's Day parade.
Memory will serve.

Already!?
ReplyDeleteWOW :O
Do Mozart and Strauss become Irish for a day today? Strauss was a master fiddler like many Irish folk. Have a lovely, spring-green Saturday! :-)
ReplyDeleteFrances,
ReplyDeletethat is too bad that the St. Patrick's Day parade is doing on while you have to work!
Paris Breakfasts,
we are getting greener by the minute, yes! ;-)
Zosia,
I don't hink so, but there are a few places where they'll tint the beer green. ;-)
Happy St. Patrick's Day to all,
cheers,
Merisi
A wonderful series! Makes me want to get out my paints. AND order some white parrot tulip bulbs. Plus I love the poem -- there are such bottomless depths in Emily D.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tulips photos!
