The Light At The End Of The Tunnel.


Or late afternoon in the garden.

The first red charm peony opens.
And the weigelia promises weeks of beauty to come.
Apparently I'm growing red cabbages. And beets. Who would have thunk it?
And just in time for May Day.
The most fragrant flower of them all.

We made it! It's officially spring in my yard and I hope in yours.

You know what the Indigo Girls say don't you? This has been my battle cry over the last 2 months.
"Rise Up"

"You remember there's more than this
There always was and always is
Tend the artist in your charges
You are full invested


Rise up your dead
There's a life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead.

Oh, come on the summers coming.
 The rains been heavy and the rivers runin' .
Loose the calf , it's been tough But it's fast and groovin'
We got sticks to a hundred piles.
  We got stories that lead to smiles 
 We gotta twirl with this world I can feel it movin'.
Rise up your dead.

There's a life in the old girl yet
Rise up your dead. "

Happy May Day to all and I hope you found the virtual baskets on your front doors!
