Spring
 

 

 

Softly waving in the breeze,
The daffodil coyly smiles,
And tosses her golden head.
The crocus glistens,
In the pale sunshine,
Shades of yellow, purple and white,
The proud hyacinth holds her head,
Towards the sky, straight and tall,
The snowdrops hide, their glory gone,
They led the way to spring,
The bluebells amass on woodland floors,
The earthy smell of moss and fern,
The catkins swaying in the hedgerow,
The blackbird feeding its young,
All these sights and all these sounds,
Tell us spring has finally arrived,
Bringing life anew to everything.

Lynda Robson

I guess my computer is giving me problems again.

I couldn’t get anything to reload; I finally came back to Marissa’s WindowsXP to get anything to work.

I hope everyone is having a good day.

I’m going to power down on the other computer to see if that helps.

I need to go to the P O and the bank today so I will be gone for awhile.

I will try to get back before time to leave but must hop in the shower now. : )

Have a Marvelous Monday!!

Morning Amy! I have GOT to get off of this computer! The day is wasting away and I have SO much to do. I have been tied up over on John's thread all morning. :-(

Hope you have a good day. :-)

Nice chicklet, and poem, you've got there. Late for Easter, but timely for Spring.

I wonder if his/her siblings think the world is a dark, dreary and confining place.

You should be selling these adorable pictures instead of giving them away for free.

I heard the Jolie-Pitt baby went for $10 million, and that was just the photos.

That is precisely why I call the one below "Birth Retrospective."

I thought I would jump in here to tell you I saw one of the bluebirds trying to go in its house and the mate flew out and he/she went in, so that was good to know! Maybe they have finished building, I am just not sure yet. I will know in the very near future! When those babies come out, I will be out most everyday and can watch for the cat.....cats like to prowl at night though! LOL~~~

What a relief to know that your bluebirds are okay and still tending their nest! I was a bit concerned this morning because I couldn't see my jay on her nest. I went out a couple times and she wasn't there, neither was her mate. But, later today I found her sitting on her eggs again. All is well. :-)

I believe that this is my jays first family. I hope they know what they are doing. LOL. So far, so good. I saw both of them standing on the edge of the next yesterday peering down at their eggs. It was so sweet.
