It was with great content that I sat here enveloped in the romance of March weather thinking of my family. Memories of March days when I was a youth in art school and had puerile dreams of myself sitting on the bank of some swirling muddy stream with the warm sunlight pouring over the steamy earth and pussy willows gleaming on its banks.
