sure enough....

if you get down really low
with your cheek almost on the ground
and
move the matted leaves and reeds
flattened like pancakes during winter's wrath
you can find
spring
*
happy sunday everyone
and
i hope today you find color underneath your feet

  3. Nope... no flowers blooming here today. The daffys are already done for the year. BUT, I looked up and found some fabulous beauty overhead in the blossoms of the trees.

  7. I have loads of color on my back yard. All the lovely yellow petals from my Banks Roses, blasted off the vine by 70 mph winds.

    It looks like we held a wedding here and only the trails of petals remain lol.
    Now if only a wind would take them all away on their own so I don't have to get out the monster blower!

    AW, here you penned this lovely post, and I'm only thinking about practicality...

  9. You know what? I DID find a wee bit of color in the middle of this thaw. Guess what it was? The sprout. Of a weed.
    But it IS color nonetheless;)

  11. So crazy, we are full into spring and actually kind of on to summer a little.. the blossoms are all done. We are not that far away! But we are pulling weeds and surrounded in wild flowers.
    Going to do a bunch of senior portraits next week. Wishing I was you to shoot them, but I will do my best!
    :)

  19. I know spring is out there, I have gone looking too and seen small signs. Now it the liquid sunshine would just go away so the spring can shine in abundance.

  22. Spring is here, a little later than what it said on the calendar, but it is here. We rode our bikes yesterday and I planted some flower seeds. Now if the birds will leave the seeds alone we will have a few flowers and maybe, just maybe, I will take a picture of them this summer. Fingers crossed.
