pussy willows, cat tails , soft winds and roses

 

Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses Rainbows in the woodland, water to my knees Shivering, quivering, the warm breath of spring Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses Catbirds and cornfields, daydreams together Riding on the roadside the dust gets in your eyes Reveling, disheveling, the summer nights can bring Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses Slanted rays and colored days, stark blue horizons Naked limbs and wheat bins, hazy afternoons Voicing, rejoicing, the wine cups do bring Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses Harsh nights and candle lights, wood fires a-blazin' Soft lips and fingertips resting in my soul Treasuring, remembering, the promise of spring Pussywillows, cat-tails, soft winds and roses picture taken on my way home from work tonight  lyrics by my old friend Gordon Lightfoot.

I remember singing this in choir when I was in, maybe... grade 6..... or younger. I sing it every year when I see the pussywillows (so early this year -- they're pretty much done now!)

SMART TIP: Make it a habit to turn off the lights when you're leaving any room for 15 minutes or more and utilize natural light when you can.
