Well, I always thought that the first day of spring was on March 21st every year. However, google says that it is today. And that's all good. And I actually questioned that it was today and not tomorrow. So I googled it. And it can either be on March 20th or 21st depending on the day the vernal equinox occurs. And so then I had to look up vernal equinox. Well, it's when the centre of the Sun spends nearly the same amount of time above and below the horizon at every location on Earth and night and day will be of nearly the same length. So! Apparently it's the first day of spring. And to celebrate I have posted the lyrics of a quite awesome song that I love, that is so appropriate for today.
The First Day Of Spring
by the Gandharvas
My friend
Don't just sit there and ruminate
With your navel to comtemplate
It's a beautiful day outside
Time's passing you by
Come on out
Don't just sit there catatonic
I'm feeling supersonic
A warm wind is sweeping by
The sun's full in the sky
And there's no way of knowing,
No way to know,
Know how long it'll last,
No way of knowing,
No way to know,
Know how long it'll last...
Come on out
Don't just sit there and decompose
Go throw on some summer clothes
I would enjoy your company
But please hurry
Cause there's no way of knowing,
No way to know,
Know how long it'll last,
No way of knowing,
No way to know,
Know how long it'll last
yeah...
My friend
It's time that you begin again
time that you begin again
time that you begin again
time that you begin yeah
