"The flowers of late winter and early spring occupy places in our hearts well out of proportion to their size." — Gertrude S. Wister
I was walking to the car park and the city flower boxes have been planted but not yet in bloom. I found they filled me with an anticipatory excitement of what was to come. It's funny how such a small promise of future beauty can be uplifting. Is it a post lockdown need to celebrate every little thing or is it just age, and suddenly anything positive seems uplifting?

Such a sight is definitely uplifting, dear Lydia, whether it's because of "age" or because of the post-lockdown craving for every happy sight like a straw of salvation...
ReplyDeleteI'm linking you today to a review of a (partly rainy) trip in June, which means my season is the one that's just about to come its way in Australia - summer :-)
All the best,
Traude
