The promise of spring

So surreal
Almost unreal
The appearance
Of the tulips
And the promise
Of spring



They bring
With them
Hope
Of a new beginning
With the beauty
Of white around green



Thanks to Diva Drip for this beautiful and inspiring picture.

Amazing ! You are quite right, again the essence is the same, tho' the styles different. You think we got some telepathy going here ;-) ?
Looks like I missed this post of yours, can't see a previous comment by me and we ended up writing the same thing !
I saw the daffodils springing up back on my way home and couldn't help thinking all those thoughts...
Your post is lovely and full of hope..

Pincushion - Maybe there is some telepathy? Lets wait and watch the next few posts! ;-)
