Tree in March Snow, Memphis , Tennessee 1987

The day had been fairly uneventful, and the skies were a bit overcast. Yet at the end of a business meeting at a local corporation, a phone call came announcing that my niece Faye had just arrived into the world. After closing up my briefcase and walking outside, I discovered that the overcast skies had given birth to something almost as wonderful as my new niece. A rare spring snow was plummeting to earth, covering the fresh buds on the cherry trees and the beautiful grounds surounding the office building I had just exited. As the temperatures climbed that afternoon, the snow finally melted. But Faye was still there, a tiny symbol of life oblivious to the world of irony in which she had been born.
