A quotation from Virgil:
«
But, sooth, ’tis Spring
Lends leafing orchard and the woodside green
Her help and succor; in the Spring the earth
Swells warm and bids the seeds of life begin.
Then will th’ almighty Sire from heights of air
Descend in life-engendering showers to fill
Earth’s bosom, his glad spouse, and mightily
With her vast body mingling, brings to power
All…

I keep swearing that 'September horny spider season' gets earlier every year.
Well, now it's June and there's a male T. gigantica (or whatever they're called now) waving its pedipalps and looking for love on our sitting room wall.
ugh

Better late than never 😉
Though a couple days later than I planned, I bottled my #Blackberry #Apple #Malt #Honey #mead today! (So that's a uh... fruited #braggot #cyser #melomel #fusion for my fellow #homebrew #geeks 🤓)
It drinks like a #rosé with #attitude
OG 1.080
FG 1.002
10.24% ABV 🥂
It's going to be phenomenal with some #naughty #cheeses this spring and #summer #season 😋

Everything is so commercialized nowadays that holidays have lost their spirits. Gone are the days of true Christmas spirit, Family time, Halloween, the Iftars and the Diwalis. Those of you who are still celebrating it, you’re damn blessed.

#OTD Thomas Wentworth #Higginson, American #Unitarian #Minister & #Abolitionist, is
born.
He once #Lost his #Congregation for being too #Progressive.
He #Discovered the #Poet Emily #Dickinson, & they became #Friends.
He asked,
"How many #Lessons of #Faith + #Beauty we should #Lose if there were no #Winter in our #Year?"

Now #Winter #Lights its #Cheerful #Fire,
While jests with #Frolic #Mirth resound
And #Draws the #Wandering #Beauty nigher,
'Tis now too #Cold to #Rove around;
The #Christmas #Game, the playful #Dance,
Incline her #Heart to #Glee -
#Mutual we #Glow, and #Kindling #Love
#Draws every #Wish to me.

I sat with #Chill #December
Beside the #Evening #Fire.
"And what do you #Remember,"
I ventured to inquire,
"Of #Seasons long #Forsaken?"
He answered in #Amaze,
"My #Age you have #Mistaken:
I've lived but #Thirty #Days."

Today's word made me think of John #Updike's A&P: #Lust in the Aisles:
Like the slow sound of a great #Gong,
#Yellow overspread the #Woods
From the tan of #Beech & #Ash
to the #Hickory's spotty #Gold
and the Hat butter color
of the mitten-shaped #Leaves
of the #Sassafras

At #Christmas I no more #Desire a #Rose
Than #Wish a #Snow in #May's #NewFangled #Shows;
But #Like of each thing
That in #Season #Grows.

#Vss365 (gardener's version)
Many #Flowers are named for #Botanists as a way to give them #Credit for their work.
But in 1910, The #Rutland Daily #Herald in #Vermont shared this #Charming #Story:
A #Country #Nurseryman had a #Flower named Rhodum sidus that was selling like #Hotcakes.
It was popular w/ the #Ladies & the sage of the #Season.
When a #Botanist asked where the #Plant was #Discovered, the man answered:
"I found it on the #Road beside us, so I #Christened it the Rhodum sidus."
