Pussy willows in bloom are always a sure sign of spring. If your heart is forever young and you believe in magic, at night you will often find tiny fairies playing atop the pussy willows. Just for fun, the fairies toss the willow's pixie dust-like spores high into the air and watch and giggle as the seeds dance in the wind and and slowly swirl to the ground. Once the fairies grow tired they fall asleep upon the pussy willow's soft white pillow and dream of tomorrow's mischievous play. In my heart I believe this to be true. I hope you do too!
