Among shy green the Redbuds spot the woods, and I wonder why Spring teases me with her little riddle of rain. I've waited patiently to see the of birthing Spring, And here...in wetness I complain! But drop upon dribble, I find answer to riddle; The bark is painted black, a greater contrast to each petal and leaf, Freshly washed and waxed! Vibrancy with the rain. *I thank Rick for his inspiration. |

This near-paradise I live in lacks three flowers, and I miss them all at this time of year: Forsythia, Dogwood, Redbud. Thanks for a little trip back to something good. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

jwesley and Ratleader, Absolutely beautiful here! The Forsythia are almost gone and the springing of Redbud and Dogwog have stolen the spotlight for a few days until the lilac steps center stage! Glad to you stopped by. miscellanea |

As I read this I can smell the rain coming in and I can see a single raindrop cut its path along a red bud petal. Wonderfully done |

Very well worded. Now if only the cold wind and freeze will end. I've delayed in planting way to long. Nice write. |

Spent the last week weeding out the gardens... in the rain! Beautiful season but it sure is a lot of work! I'd say it's worth it, though. ![]() Great to read you again, I so miss being able to read all the poetry here. Hope things are going well for you... Always, Alyssa He was a man of sorrows |
