Spring Blossoms
Where I live, spring’s in bloom. As I look out my kitchen window, two dogwoods (shown above), one placed perfectly behind the other, reach to the sky.
A short walk up my street is an almost embarrassing display of nature – this showy pink spectacle, which makes me smile, as it seems to color the air a pale hint of baby girl . While the white dogwood stays in bloom for two weeks or so, this pink blossomed tree loses its petals in a matter of days.
See the branch heading off to the right? Today I was so excited to see that it has leaves and gorgeous white blossoms. I’m astounded that there is enough life coming up the trunk to sustain these beautiful sprays.
