Beautiful poetry, beautiful photo...
Now...if only I could see such things from my windows! Instead...temps in the teens and 6 inches of snow on the ground...sigh...

If I am not wrong those are apple tree flowers, and as the old people said when I was little, "there will be overflow of fruit and warm summer" I hope they knew what they were saying.

My hope is the sun will shine before I locate my shovel.
