The thin trunks light
green mildew
covering them
a skin just touched
by first rays winter
sun and slender
branches sway with
birds leaping
off to
spring

nice images.......the purple flowers so beautiful...!
Thank you, Sandra -- yes, aren't those flowers lovely?
that 'off' has got a lot of sense...
I like how this does exactly what it says at the end :)
Thank you hb and leigh for getting this one, how fortunate that it should have such sensitive readers.
Ah, this is as beautiful as what it describes. New York is thawing. Blouses are in bloom. Welcome.
Robb,
There is nothing so lovely on a chilly wishing-it-were spring morning as being welcomed into a freshly blooming blouse. I shall remember this moment of the Great Thaw forever.
