The winter months drag by with all the monotony of reading a dictionary, yet a single week in spring changes everything.

I don’t know WHO typed the cutline for this blossoming-afresh picture, but they were decidedly WRONG. Perhaps they have not thawed from winter’s chill!
“The winter months drag by with all the monotony of reading a dictionary, yet a single week in spring changes everything.”
‘Reading-a-dictionary’ is preparation – just like planting bulbs, fertalizing, trimming, gathering up the dead leaves and all the chores of tending to something worthwhile. Winter is a time of anticipation. Spring, with all its pastel glory, is the reward IF you have prepared. Aren’t you excited to write your picture descriptions more poetically now that vibrant hues have reappeared? This garden haven, in which you get to live and work and experience such constant fullness-of-heart, deserves all-seasonal POETRY.
