ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI miss walking a forest trail.
ReplyDeleteIt is good for what ails us.
DeleteThat horrible snow of the winter in NY made for a beautiful green in the spring.
ReplyDeleteThat's the price we pay for beauty.
DeleteI do think we appreciate these delicate beauties even more because they too have survived the harsh winter. Hope springs eternal and all that.
ReplyDeleteThere is a special excitement factor when spring flowers push their way out of the frozen ground.
DeleteSo many flowers, so little time.
ReplyDeleteThat's the truth.
