Thank you to the Vermont Humanities Council for sharing this little gem:

“A little Madness in the Spring”

by Emily Dickinson

A little Madness in the Spring

Is wholesome even for the King,

But God be with the Clown —

Who ponders this tremendous scene —

This whole Experiment of Green —

As if it were his own!

In honor of Ms. Dickinson I turn again to our hillsides where this “Experiment of Green” is going on.
