“Is the spring coming?“ he said. "What is it like?”…
“It is the sun shining on the rain and the rain falling on the sunshine…”
Last week we analyzed the coldest season, its secrets and its mysterious aura: this week we celebrate the season of rebirth. Springtime is an explosion of life, when nature highlights its beauty and power and fecundity. It is the most creative and prolific period for our planet, when beauty, poetry, sounds and colors intersect and create new pieces of art.
