'Tis the year's midnight, and it is the day's,
Lucy's, who scarce seven hours herself unmasks;
The sun is spent, and now his flasks
Send forth light squibs, no constant rays;
The whole world's sap is sunk;
The general balm th'hydroptic earth hath drunk,
Whither, as to the bed's feet, life is shrunk,
Dead and interred. ......
Sounds like fun .....

Well that means that spring is just around the corner.
21 of March 1st day of spring..... but seen daffs out in the shops already: easter eggs will be out soon:
I saw a woman, this morning, carrying a bunch of holly and a bunch of daffodils. It looked odd.
An ironic juxtaposition indeed ... but I did read in the local rag that misletoe is on the way out
