Almost

The cornelian cherry dogwoods are almost flowering.
The forsythia is almost flowering.
The serviceberry is almost leafing out.
The lilacs, and the chokeberries, are almost leafing out.
The prairie smoke rosettes almost have flowers, there are almost pasqueflowers.  
Spring seems to be moving so fast, but also so slow!  I walk each morning, impatient for these things -- that seem to be bursting at the seams -- to finally burst out and open... and each morning, maybe tomorrow...
Time marches on.
