Spring Is In The Air...

Let me start off by giving credit to my good friend and amazing photographer (you know who you are) who took this fantastic photo of Tulips in her garden. I was in that garden and the flowers had not yet bloomed but what change a week makes.

The weather over the weekend was the first real indication that spring has arrived. How much I love spring and what it represents.

Spring represents the real "New Year". The profound natural beauty the year ahead will bring. Everything just seems better in spring (if you know what I mean).

Spring is a time to evaluate. Its when you think about where you're at, where you want to be and you make a plan to get there. Ultimately, spring is a time of reflection and we recognize that time goes by.

Spring Flowers ~ Tulips

Tulips shyly smiling, greet the spring

Tightly closed when at 

First we meet

Tulips slowly opening, begin to sing

Gaining volume 

Ever sweet 

No longer shy, as days grow longer, 

Raising their heads 

They begin to flirt

Tulips dressed in many a color

Breezes swirling 

Each floral skirt

Tulips, brazen painted hussies, 

Part their bright lips trying to seduce

The busy buzzing bees

Far too bold for dainty tussies

Vibrant Tulip flowers produce

Visions certain to please
