The trees are buff and robust, dressed in their new green finery. The flower beds call out their own sweet song ­— one that is strong and supple and filled with color. 

And out there on the horizon, be it field or forest, pond or ocean, the Island thrums with expectation. It rises early and sets late, shimmering from dawn to deep dusk.

It is a timeless tale, ready to be told again.
