But remember Steinbeck describing the constant teeming and breeding of life in the sea off the California coast.

But on any given day something is coming up to bloom.<BR/><BR/>It's unnatural. I know that for sure.<BR/>In the sense that the cycle is not long enough to get a sense of anticipation and rebirth in spring.<BR/><BR/>This is so gorgeous in this piece. Beautiful! Anticipation - and what's to come.
