I will not panic...


As I head out to the garden on this lovely May March morning,

I will not panic at the sight of lilacs in bloom and run inside to check the calendar again.

I will not falter in my quest to remove all the weeds that seem to think this early spring means "grow faster".

I will not go faster just because my eyes see blooms that make me think it is May, not March.

I will not worry about April,
