Beyond the darkened corridor

of winter’s chill and gloom,

Beckons spring with light and life

And wisps of hope

carried like a song

Despite the sub-freezing temperatures we experienced a couple of nights this week, the first daffodils in my garden are blooming, and insisting that Spring is on its way. This morning they were graced with the brightness of some unexpected sunshine and as they nodded in the breeze and their soft fragrance gently scented the air, it felt as if all the hope and promise of Spring to come was captured in those lovely blooms.

Note: After tomorrow I will be traveling for much of the next two weeks, so I apologize in advance that I may not be able to reply to comments in a timely fashion, and I will catch up on everyone's beautiful images as I can.

After weeks of cold and greyness, spring has finally arrived in England with 3 gorgeous sunny days this week. Feels good to be out and about again!

I have been away from Flickr for a while, sorry I've missed all your recent uploads, I will try to catch up soon :)

I took an early morning drive on Sunday and found this stunning tree in all its glory around Batesville, Georgia. Of course, I had to stop and take its picture!

Here in the North, spring is late for 2-3 weeks due to the harsh winter. Some of the nature is already booming, but there are still forest areas where spring is in its infancy. And the small leaves are sweetly pale green. I had to do my ICM motions gently so that the delicate leaves would not be broken. Finland.

Spring's iridescence and your effervesce bubbles all around me....

Tipsy at the refreshing wine of joy and camaraderie,

I savor every moment and colorful exchange.

My life will never be the same.

A Spring to Share

A Spring to Come

Renewed Life in the air.

A new life in the garden as the seeds begin to grow.

A new life in the garden as my rosy petals show.

Dizzy at the thought of you and our time together.

My cheeks continue to shine as I keep slowly sipping on you and your cheer wine.

Thank you all for your colorful comments and kind favs.

I hope you all enjoy sips of joy as you continue your week.

It may be the coldest May bank holiday in 43 years here in the UK, but there's nothing like a fluffy gosling to bring a bit of Spring cheer 💛

I was so excited to stroll through the yard and see flowers starting to bloom! Spring is finally showing up! I brought a couple of sprigs in to enjoy inside as it is still cold out.

I took these flowers from my garden but in solidarity with everyone who respects the rules to stays in the apartment I shooted this little bouquet in the room by the window.

Be well, stay at home and thank you for visiting!

Finally Spring has arrived in our part of the world.

Can words describe the fragrance of the very breath of spring?
