 * Primula * Her golden petals beckoned like flashlights through morning mist. Eager buds pressed their way towards the warm kiss of sunrays. I dared to get close with my nose to inhale the fragrance of Spring. And instantly I intensely relived those precious moments of the past which are still bearers of truth. I found myself transformed into the happy little girl who danced among smiling yellow flowers upon the green green lawn of youth. * |

The imagery is stunningly beautiful! And the memories of my own youth, trekking through a field of wild flowers in spring, is as real as today's sunrise! Thanks for another splendid read, Margherita; my multitasking is off to a great start!  art |

Yo dear Margherita, I'm sure they are very nice. I've always rather preferred the "human side walk flowers" of my youth. Love Bobby |

Beautiful! I love that flower, it always seem so cheerful and 'happy' to be allowed to bloom. |

You have brought Spring so so much closer, very nice The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |

Beautiful from beginning to end and here is hoping that the little girl in you never grows up. I especially liked the following lines... ----------------------------------------------- Her golden petals beckoned like flashlights through morning mist. ----------------------------------------------- those precious moments of the past which are still bearers of truth. --------------------------------------------- |

I found myself transformed into the happy little girl who danced among smiling yellow flowers upon the green green lawn of youth. Ah, what sweet and tender memories. This is so tied to the roots of the heart. Nice work as always. You have such a wonderful heart. Eric |

Ahhhhhh, smiling yellow petal dreams of youth. Well, now, I'm almost for certain that I can nearly see the Primulas saluting you for your bright and beautiful rendition of them. Yep, there they are, they're saluting you, indeed. God bless, my friend, -Bob |

I love them and this is the time of year we usually spruce up for spring with them, but the weather has not been co-operating here. I love the idea of "yellow petals of my youth" and that line got me. |

Beautiful picture and wonderful words as usual, Margherita. We are inclined to stop "dancing" as we age but it's such a pity. Let's revive the dance of youth! Love Helen |

Margherita, This is lovely and I love it because it is so lovely. Love, Alison (who overused variations of the word "Love" because I love that word) |
