The sulking landscape, brittle, dreary, stained with clutter like an airless alleyway, ignites in fleeting brilliance, as if deigned by Ceres that the heavens might display a cherub's dabbled hint of virgin green as prelude to a symphony of change. In sudden rustlings playful sprites convene in chatty complement to rearrange their homestead; and a prankish sparrow swoons and darts and teases; and a scheming squall, whose grudging bitter grip, in rasping tunes through weary pine, once dared to taunt and brawl, acknowledges its weakening affair by lifting faint hosannas to the air.
