The Reverb10 prompt for this month asked, “What’s blossoming?”
I have answers to that one on several levels.
For one thing, the cherry trees in the Public Garden:
And the trees on Boston Common:
The vase of flowers on my desk, which changes weekly. It’s amazing how spending a few dollars on daffodils or tulips can brighten a Monday:
On quite another level, the answers include: some new friendships with folks we’ve met in Quincy; the springtime, in general; the hope of summer and the anticipation of lots of visitors. And I’m thankful.
What’s blossoming for you?
Pear trees, which are almost as lovely as your cherry blossoms, but not quite. And gratitude, now that Serenity has gotten an all-clear from her first post-chemo lung scan. And fun, with Easter visits from two of our smallest granddaughters starting tonight!
Lots of cherry blossom and daffodils here too, as well as lots of little lambs. Spring is so encouraging when it feels like not a lot is blossoming in life!
