The morning air is misty.
A slight chill is perfect for my walk.
It’s eerily quiet today.
Invigorated, I’m ready for my early morning coffee on the lanai.
The view of the garden revives my soul. It’s peaceful. Nature’s tooting her horn with songs of praise to the blooms about to be born. Trees reach out their branches to the sun in a zen posture. Bursting leaves beginning to sprout in verdant colors.
Winters days are slowly departing.Time for spring to emerge and draw near.
Birds fly above with silken wings glistening in the sunlit air. Blue Jays sing.

Lovely. On my drive home from an appointment yesterday, I noticed a row of white pear blooming trees. There is a huge tree across the street –we call it a tulip tree here, huge pinkandwhite blossoms. Our dogwoods have very tight buds, but my weeping willow down at the end of the back yard is almost fully leafed out. It’s young–maybe in its third spring, and starting to look like the real thing 🙂 Terry bought three pots of azaleas, one dark red, two white. They’ll be gorgeous in a couple of years. I love this time of year, with its promise of life and growth.

It sounds like spring is sprouting up everywhere in your garden. I love spring too.
I enjoy watching the buds open. I have a few orchids in bloom. I have a tree called an orchid tree.
It has flowers like the ones on a lei in Hawaii. They’re bright red with spots of white.
I think a weeping willow is the perfect spot to sit under and read. Happy Spring!!!
Thank you for commenting and visiting, Linda.

That’s a lovely picture you’ve painted. It’s much preferable to what I’m seeing looking out the window on this dark, gray, rainy morning.

Oh my, we so need rain here in Florida. It’s been a very long time since we’ve seen very much. We had a mild sprinkle this morning but not enough. When the sun comes out I’ll send some your way. Thank you for enjoying my Spring impressions.

LOLOL … sometimes a song just pops in your head and it’s hard to let go. It must be all of this isolaiton. As long as you have a good voice so no one throws anything at you. hehe I can’t sing and no one wants to hear me sing. I try not to sing as there might be tomatoes waiting to be thrown. BUT … I can dance. Have a wonderful day enjoying your loved ones. Izzy 😎
ps – I’m on my way to check out is my comment yesterday on your blog finally was accepted. It had a thingy spinning and saying trying to locate. 🤪 😳
