that I am
oh so
ready for spring?
That I am completely
tired of snow...
and
that it is supposed to
snow here in the next few days?
I want daffodils,
and tulips,
and crocus,
and
red-bud trees,
and azaleas,
and
well...
warm weather.
I want to
sit on the beach with
sand in my shoes...
I am a
Carolina Girl at heart...
and
when March comes around...
my thoughts stray
to the
Carolina shore.
Some twenty years ago,
I was in a wedding,
as a bridesmaid,
on an island just south of Charleston, SC
the first weekend in March.
The weather was unseasonably warm,
in the 80's....
and we watched porpoises
just off the shore...
It was a magical weekend.
Live Oaks and Spanish Moss...
I am so ready for spring...

HUGE audible intake of breath! This is one of the finest photos of a flower in its natural habitat that I've ever seen. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeletePsst...do you have more? Maybe I should feature you twice during the year: bridal and non-bridal. We'd have to space them apart by several months.
Yours is the second post in my reader this morning to feature a picture of tulips. I'm ready for spring too.
ReplyDeleteThank you all! big smiles.
ReplyDeleteThat photo is absolutely astonishing. Saw you on PJ's blog and I thought I'd stop by!
ReplyDeleteI love your description of spring - I can almost feel the sand in my shoes! Leigh
