…Dear, sweet wildflower breath of April, gently moving Spring’s petticoats to and fro in her joyous dance…

Spring had come once more to Green Gables - the beautiful  capricious, relucant Canadian spring, lingering along April and May in a succession of sweet, fresh, chilly days, with pink sunsets and miracles of resurrection and growth. The maples in Lover’s Lane were red budded and little curly ferns pushed up around the Dryads Bubble. Away up in the barrens, behind Mr. Silas Sloane’s place, the Mayflowers blossomed out, pink and white stars of sweetness und their brown leaves.

I read in a book once that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet… I don’t believe a rose would be as nice if it was called a thistle or a skunk cabbage. ― Anne of Green Gables, by Lucy Maud Montgomery.

I go to nature as the bee goes to a flower, for a nectar that I can make into my own honey. — John Burroughs.
