SPRING????

Spring is being such a 'tease' this year.


She suggests forthcoming delights and then turns her back and flounces away.

She is holding out.

I fully expected the Tombstone roses covering our back fence to be in full flower by now. Instead, most of the multitudinous buds remain closed up tight.


And, I fully expected my African daisies to be a solid mass of orange and yellow by now. As you can see, they're trying, but still, not quite there.




Here's my prediction about Spring.

She just stopped by for a quick visit this year and has no intention, whatsoever, of staying for a nice long while.

Instead, Summer is coming, earlier than usual.

With a vengeance, most likely.

Sigh.

Meanwhile, I am grateful for my warm winter robe.
