The First Day of Spring
by Christina Rossetti

I wonder if the sap is stirring yet,
If wintry birds are dreaming of a mate,
If frozen snowdrops feel as yet the sun
And crocus fires are kindling one by one:
Sing, robin, sing;
I still am sore in doubt concerning Spring.

I wonder if the springtide of this year
Will bring another Spring both lost and dear;
If heart and spirit will find out their Spring,
Or if the world alone will bud and sing:
Sing, hope, to me;
Sweet notes, my hope, soft notes for memory.

The sap will surely quicken soon or late,
The tardiest bird will twitter to a mate;
So Spring must dawn again with warmth and bloom,
Or in this world, or in the world to come:
Sing, voice of Spring,
Till I too blossom and rejoice and sing.

The Cardinal
All of the rooms at The Ida Grey are named for our beloved Ida Grey’s favorite birds. The primary bedroom is The Cardinal. Ida Grey was an avid bird watcher and her yard is home to thousands of birds. Northern Cardinals are cherished songbirds and are among the many birds that can be spotted perched on our feeders each and every day of the year.

Green grass, fresh blooms, and longer days. We couldn’t be more ready for spring at The Ida Grey!

The only place to be on this frigid Louisiana day! While me missed the snow here in Ruston, we’ve loved seeing our neighbors down south blanketed in white 🤍

A grand 10-foot flocked tree twinkles in the front window, draped in velvet ribbons and ornaments that catch the light just so. It feels like a story waiting to unfold—just add a crackling fire and friends gathered close.

This season has been such a gift, welcoming so many of you to The Ida Grey for the holidays. And already, we’re dreaming about the gatherings to come next year.

A place to gather, to step out of the cold—or the humidity, depending on the South’s ever-changing seasons.

The entry is draped in fresh evergreens and velvet ribbon the color of winter berries, with a silver bowl brimming with Louisiana citrus—a quiet nod to tradition and memory.

Stay tuned—we’ll show you the rest of the home soon, dressed in its holiday best, waiting to welcome you in.

There’s something about Christmas at The Ida Grey that feels like a story you’ve heard before, the kind you want to hear again and again. Evergreen swags drape the upstairs balcony, tied with red velvet ribbons. Wreaths—magnolia, cedar, and spruce—rest on the doors, quiet and elegant, while the lamp posts and garden gate have their own touch of the season. It’s a southern Christmas, simple and timeless, unfolding right here.
