Spring is Sprung

IT’S APRIL
Are warmer days really ahead?
I will believe it when I see it..where is that global warming when you really need it?
We have all learned the fun little ditty below but I
Love the way Robert Frost stated it better. How about you?

SPRING IS SPRUNG
FALL HAS FELL
WHAT HAS IT BRUNG?
COLDER THAN….USUAL

VS….

"The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day.
When the sun is out and the wind is still,
You're one month on in the middle of May.
But if you so much as dare to speak,
a cloud come over the sunlit arch,
And wind comes off a frozen peak,
And you're two months back in the middle of March."
- Robert Frost, Two Tramps in Mud Time, 1926

If you are lucky enough to share an anniversary in April we have a few suggestions;
1. Here’s an assignment: Write a paragraph on all or a page on one of these topics:
 Why I love you
 I remember when we first met…
 Why I married you
Make it into a scroll: give it to her with a ribbon tied around it.

2. A myth that affects romance: “Nice guys finish last.” One of the most idiotic-yet-widespread untruths ever sold to adolescent boys in American culture. No wonder European men often sweep women off their feet with old-world style romance.

3. A myth that women tend to believe: “I can change him”
 You can’t, find what things you do like in him and cultivate them

4. This is not a myth…reading to each other in bed builds a closer relationship and maybe an amazing prelude to romance.

5. It surely a myth that “Planning kills spontaneity” (this one belongs in the “Lame Excuses Department)
