A Gathering
I spend cold spring mornings gathering blossoms that seem artificial in shape with their large petals in sunshine colors. Summer has an abundance of blossoms in all shapes and sizes. Fall includes the daisy-shaped blossoms of asters and mums. Then it all changes as I collect the sugar maple leaves that have been scattered across the distant lawn. They soon curl into crinkly pieces of parchment, but the glow does last for days.
Maximizing nature's beauty!
ReplyDeleteThe sugar maple is always a happy looking tree to me, even when it is holding out its bare branches to the winter. It seems to have secrets, very sweet secrets.
