Driving along the boulevard, she noticed trees with leaves! When did they grow so fast? The rain and warm spells must have helped. And then she passed a house with cherry blossoms…she wanted to stop and take a photo but decided to keep the image more perfect in her memory. She sighed wishing she lived closer to this house and then she saw a magnolia tree! Well, now, this was a lovely drive filled with promise. These beauties could certainly tie her over until the apple blossoms expected in the next three weeks.
blossoms
all worth the wait
nature’s promise
She remembers, as a child, in June asking her grandmother when the lilacs will be ready. Such a fragrant gift to share…
nature’s promise
yet, just a hope
scents of lilacs
mid-June treasures
picked by teacher’s pet
Fleeting memories keep her in a state of grace…calm and content, such a lovely escape.
