Taken today on a walk around my garden. If I can't go out to take pictures I will find other way's to use my camera. If I can put a smile on peoples faces at the same time then it's worth it.

A flower, the morning sun and a bit of the surreal.

Beaming yellow, so the bees can see it from space!!

“A Little Tale”…

 

As is known by all, our world moves in a circular motion. This creates the cycles of the seasons and the moon, the length of the days and nights, the aging process of all living beings, and so forth. Spring is the first cycle of the Wheel of the Year and it carries the heaviest load of responsibility compared to the others.

 

It is the time in the Wheel of the Year for the rebirth of the dead dormant earth, the promise and fulfillment of new life, new hope, the propagation and continuation of every species on the planet…mankind, animals, elementals, insects plants, birds, trees, and so on the list goes, as well as the continuation of the elements and our world itself.

 

All look to and depend on Spring to fulfill “The Promise”…The Promise that life will continue; that we will be “renewed”; that winter’s cold, darkness, death, and dormancy have been conquered yet another year; our species will propagate and guarantee our existence for the future; and that food, natural resources, light and energy from the sun will be replenished and nourish our planet yet again.

 

Since rebirth is, most likely, the major responsibility of Spring, nature, including mankind, reproduces. Trees sprout new growth promising the coming of flowers, nuts, and fruits. Animals and birds give birth to young ones to continue their lineage and the Element of Water mixed with the Element of Air send water, in the form of rain, down from the sky to the earth to nourish all that is reproducing, thus, contributing to the continuation of the magical ring of life.

 

Spring is a very busy time of The Wheel of the Year for our Creator, the Goddess (Mother Nature), the Planet, and all that live upon the earth. Timing is critical. If leaves and new growth on trees sprout too soon, a late Spring frost might kill the growth and/or the tree itself, thus, preventing the tree from producing new fruits, nuts or flowers. If birds’ eggs hatch too soon, chances are they will not survive. Plus, they need the Elements of Earth, Water, and Air to supply them with juicy worms and other insects for food, plenty of water to drink, and air currents to be optimal so eventually they will conquer the daunting task of flying and soaring through the skies.

 

All must be in harmony and in sync for Spring to fulfill her responsibility. All must work together as one… for, in truth, we are all one…one with the Creator or Goddess and one with each other...each other being very living creation upon this planet. For we all are connected to and part of “The Source” of everything and must live and work in harmony to assure the continuation of all that inhabits our planet, our home.

With Spring on its way and nature starting to send up its new life, hope grows within us and reinforces the belief that life is renewed once again.

 

For me, proof of nature’s rebirth is birds. Birds gather up the remnants of winter’s kill and fashion these dead things into beautifully woven nests of twigs, broken branches, dead leaves, and such and make cradles, safe and warm, for the new life they will bring into our world. From death, they make life come anew.

 

I was thinking these thoughts when I created this assemblage of a beautiful little blue bird guarding her eggs nestled in a nest accentuated with real acorn caps from my enchanted yard, in addition to other nature related items. The acorn caps and the leaves are dabbed with glitter to signify the magic and mystery of new life and rebirth.

 

This is my original idea, “A little Tale, and creation. It is not to be reprinted, copied or used in any medium. It is my property.

  

One of the first spring flowers in my garden so I just had to take a photo of it.... a snowdrop... a very apt name as there was snow on the hills yesterday!

 

Scenes of spring- yep, there are indeed lots of dandelion pictures out there, but despite the havoc these seeds wreak on our lawns, they sure are pretty. This one was particularly nice as the top seeds had flown off, allowing a view into the center and the radial arms of the soon to be shed seeds.

Sunshine first thing today, and a lovely bowl of Spring flowers inside - so things are looking up!

Hope my flowers make you smile ........ x

 

It snowed this afternoon!

Last weekend's drive to Bath County, Virginia, included a stop at the recently restored Warm Springs Pools. The natural, mineral-rich warm springs have been used for centuries for visitors to "take the waters." The original stone basin of the present Gentlemen's Bathhouse was built in 1761, with the building dating to the 1820s. The 22-sided Ladies' Bathhouse, shown in this photo, dates to the 1870s. Visitors check in at the Reception House, on the right in the photo. The pools are owned by the Omni Homestead Resort, in nearby Hot Springs, and they reopened in December 2022 after being closed several years for renovation. This was my first visit to "take the waters" following the restoration. Information from a brochure at the pools.

I feel so lazy, can't do a thing

My mind is hazy just like a smoke ring

I think of nothing but lying in the hay

I got the spring fever blues

 

The sun is shining right in my room

I feel like I was the man in the moon

I'm riding high on the clouds way above us

I got the spring fever blues

 

I wish that spring were back again

To satisfy my lazy yen

I miss those days of dreaming

If birds were nestlin' in the trees

And leaves were swayin' with the breeze

My heart would keep on beaming, who-o-oh

 

I hope the south wind blows past my door

And leaves me someone whom I can adore

I think of nothing but love and romance

I've got the spring fever blues, I mean

I've got the spring fever blues
