I saw these last week on my walk. Apparently 2020 has been a disorienting year even for the shrubs. Like the apostle Paul, they are as one “untimely born.”
The buds, they were a-budding,
A-dormant they should be.
The rumors they heard of spring
Were just a fallacy.
Reporting on fake news in the shrubbery, I’m Lynniebee.
I’ll probably delete this…or will I? It’s so hard to know things for sure these days.

It’s the type of weather where the maple trees could be sending up sap too!To the trees I say, “Take cover, turn over, it’s not time to get out of hibernation yet.You can go back to sleep!”
