Every year around this time I see tulip leaves emerging in the gardens around Victoria College and I worry that they’re too eager, that they won’t survive another Spring snowfall. “Why would you leave your cozy bunker for the wicked chills of lingering winter?” I ask them. “Stay put, little blooms.” But the tulips ignore my pleas. They know better. I see these ones bloom year after year. They’re a vibrant red and bring a splash of majesty to the grounds of the college. Spring is always a bit of a miracle, isn’t it?
