We had like two inches of heavy wet snow the morning of the first day of Spring.

The birdies are all roosting right outside my bedroom window and chirp like mad far too early in the morning. >_<

We don't have snow at all. Which is stupid. In a normal winter we get snow mid-October and the snow melts mid-April. This year we got snow mid-January and it melted last week.

We literally are in the "blowing winter away" phase. REBORN noticeably higher .

It's in my book of comic poetry as "Spring in the Bronx," and listed with the two lines of the thread title plus the two lines I posted (although the first two lines are written in dialect as well: "Spring is sprung, Da grass is riz/ I wonder where dem boidies is.")awesome .

My father (a Brooklynite, born and bred) made the mistake of teaching us that one summer.

My favourite Spike Milligan poem (apologies for length): quote: I feel all "five" again -it must be the spring air!
