Blossoms for Sunlit Sunday



Memory. It can make me laugh out loud, or bring tears to my eyes. Remembering things like dental treatments isn't pleasant (I have one coming up in 10 days.) Remembering the sunshine earlier this week is pure delight. Although the rain pours down once again, the memory of a few sunny days during the week reminds me that spring is not far off. Blossoms of palest pink fill the trees. Ethereal tinted clouds line the streets. Spring. Not far off.

  3. The blossom will bring joy to your heart Lorrie - it's exquisite and the sky such a vivid blue.
    The beauty Spring brings, ensures that the bad memories of snow and cold pales in significance!

  6. I am waiting patiently for my apple blossoms. This must be the month for teeth, a number of people are having, or had a dental procedure, myself included. Good luck with yours.

  7. Gorgeous - we saw a few flowering trees beginning to show flowers today - but no sunshine. Now the big storm has rolled in and it is blowing and pounding rain.

  8. There is something special about blossom. My crab apple is on the point of flowering, always a happy moment.

  12. Oh, Lorrie! The thought of "ethereal tinted clouds" conjures up my imagination. How lovely that you get to see such beautiful blossoms en masse.

    Spring is inching ever closer . . .

  15. As I look around my garden and shrubs, I notice that Spring is a long way off yet, lol. I guess though, it will be here before I know it.

  16. Nothing says spring like blossoms against a pure blue sky! We were the same here- spring early in the week, then blustery snow on the weekend- winter's last hurrah.

  20. Your blossoms of Spring are just stunning.
    Spring has definitely arrived here, even with a few Spring showers the flowers are becoming abundant.

  21. Best of luck with your dental procedure, Lorrie! I went through quite a few of the same six months ago. I have been putting off my next check up because of that..lol!

    Spring will be here in a few days--I hope it will be kinder than this winter was!

  23. Oh please tell me that your blossoms are to come, and not yet there...that would make March the cruelest month to me, not April.

    Best of luck with the Dentist, may it go fast.
