What a gorgeous sign of spring, thank you! It's late coming here this year.
Mmmmm
Oh my! THankyou for that glorious posy!
Lush-ness is just what I need right now. yesterday the brown garden that delighted me a couple days ago, became a tad boring....after raking up enough leaves to fill 5 huge leaf bags!
Spring comes early this year to England (well the South East, anyway). I saw a delightful patch of primroses in a sunny, protected hollow whilst walking the dog yesterday.
George Herbert and "The Flower" swept into my head...
How Fresh, O Lord, how sweet and clean / Are thy returns! ev’n as the flowers in spring;
