So what exactly happened to spring? You know spring- days in the 60's, April showers, that kind of thing. I guess that's just a memory for now, though within a few years that might be February. It reminds me of Desiderata, a 1927 prose poem popular during my college years. It's an advice kind of thing, full of sentiments like "Surrender gracefully the things of youth," and "Speak your truth quietly and clearly." It was famously parodied by the National Lampoon, in something called Deteriorata, which features such sage advice as "Rotate your tires" and "Hire people with hooks." It also lists some things of youth you should surrender, like clean air and tuna. At this point I guess have to add spring to those things.
I'll leave you with this seasonal favorite
