Daffodils and primroses and the coming of spring

 






a month away yet from Spring and months and months to go until summer time and yet...

dreams are blooming in my heart of long walks and days spent at the beach or in the mountains

Dragonflies and hollyhocks all everywhere...marking the passages of time. 

Today though is the last week of February with all the hubbub of valentines day behind us ~ Saint 

Patrick's and the vernal equinox to hope for. 

These are the days of daffodils in the markets and tulips bright and cheery in little vases on the kitchen 

table promising warmer weather and happier dispositions. 

I've already begun to creep in at the edges of my spring wardrobe though the weather is still frigidly 

cold...hardly a temp above zero and that is without the wind chill. 

March is but a week and will bring little pots of Oxalis and brightly coloured primrose plants on the

market shelves. 



Still though, a bouquet of yellow daffodils as I reach for my winter jacket is just enough to spring hope

eternal in my heart of hearts.
