Spring dances in —
Two steps forward and one step back.
Frosted dawns
Give way to soft pink light.
Blue skies are serenaded
By blur of wings and trees
Waiting to burst into bud.
And winter leaves behind
A fragile reminder of its return.
For more dancing, please visit: Our World.
I absolutely adore the first photo. The colours are incredible and the nature…!

Dear Lady Fi, the approach of spring and the retreat of winter is truly “two steps forward and one step back” here in western Missouri. We’ve had days in the 70s followed by days in the 40s–a wet cold at that. But oh, this week is supposed to stay in the 70s and I’m so looking forward to walking every day. Thank you for sharing your evocative photographs and words. Peace.

Geraldine! What a delightful surise to see you here; I was doing a search engine about the fabulous poem by Yeats:
Had I the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and the half light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
W.B. Yeats (1865–1939)
When I came acroos this most lovely blog, and, since you are here: I am going to follow it.
Love to you and your adorable cat,
