Spring Vigil

Every year I play this little nature game. Each day I check the trees and watch the buds as they develop. I am particularly interested in trees. Inevitably there comes a day when I look and am startled the leaves have somehow appeared. It is as if you blink and one moment there are no leaves and then voila! the trees are fully dressed in their finest. So, I am again on my spring vigil to see if I can capture that special moment... when the leaves appear and the wonder of creation overwhelms me once more.
