Tennessee In Bloom

Color is once again returning to our landscapes.

The spring trees are in bloom.
Dogwood, Bradford Pear, Cherry and Magnolia, all doing their part, and adding their touch to the spring palette.
 








An altered look about the hills;
A Tyrian light the village fills;
A wider sunrise in the dawn;
A deeper twilight on the lawn;
A print of a vermilion foot;
A purple finger on the slope;
A flippant fly upon the pane;
A spider at his trade again;
An added strut in chanticleer;
A flower expected everywhere ..."

~Emily Dickinson

Emily paints a lovely spring picture. And those trees so full of colour are a delight for the eye

Your flowering trees are always so wonderful to see. It is definitely warmer there for you and the trees love the temps. We do have magnolias blooming through the very cold temps.

What a blessed gift these Springtime blossoms are to the spirit and your trees
are simply outstanding, Jo.

I am so happy for you! Winter does get a bit weary at the end and we are so happy when things bloom again!
