Happy Chinese New Year

Songs of a grasshopper noisily occupied my garden in the nights. Taking a  chance I looked around before leaving for Cerok Tokun on last Sunday morning; it had been exercising its natural rights to the fullest.

It came to a complete silence yesterday, this piqued my curiosity for an answer again.

Spring is coming, that marked its return to the fable as a character of decades, to carry a mandolin and continue singing, and to continue exercising the natural rights in the warmer months.

Yes, spring is coming. In the lines in the fable this reads, "Happy Chinese New Year to everyone."

HAPPY NEW YEAR and every OTHER day!!! (Every day is "New Year's Day")

And I am certin those grasshoppers are happy. NEVER anyone could tell me they have no feelings, are emotionless, etc.

Proof: I once did some stupid experiments--about age 7--and found they "hurt" just like We do. Forever since, I have been extra kind to animals. I used to hug the cows and horses and sheep, goats, hogs, and especially my very own Hereford steer which I raised (age 12)...
Thanks for your work in posting award-winning stuff on here!

Wonderful picture. Chinese new year came and went so quietly for me though there were big festivities in Chinatown, San Francisco. All good wishes for very wonderful year, rain field.
