Sunday Morning Sunshine: Dandelions

 Dandelions

Over the climbing meadows

Where swallow-shadows float,

These are the small gold buttons

On earth's green, windy coat.

--Frances M. Frost

Sunday Morning Sunshine: Dandelions

 Dandelions

What was it I saw by the road today, 

So golden bright, so cheerily gay,

Sprinkled so thickly among the grass,

Along the way that I must pass?

Was it pirates gold that someone found,

Cashed away in a secret mound,

Then fled, surprised by a guard at night?

Or was it the coin of fairyland,

Cast abroad by a robber band,

Or the dowry of a princess fair?

Say, what is this gold that is everywhere?

--Unknown

Sunday Morning Sunshine: Spring is...

Apple and Cherry Blossoms that eventually produce fruit

Sunshine-y Daffodils give us hope

Baby chicks and ducks that remind us how precious life is

Dandelions that tell us whether we like butter or not 

if we hold a blossom under our chin
and...
the leaves and stems make a nice spring "greens" dish

Easter with the Easter Egg hunts,

the dinners filled with lots of food

and family together

church services 

and remembering why we celebrate Easter

Lots of rain

but always a rainbow somewhere

There is a Season:  Spring! 

Happy Days!
