Postcards from Paradise: Spring Magic




I emerged from the cocoon of illness
to find the world ablaze with color


-- pools of light --



and diverse things clamoring for attention
like an unruly child  


or a squeaky wheel just waiting for grease




Everywhere I look



I see reminders of this quote by Ellis Peters



Every spring is the only spring -- a perpetual astonishment.

Astonished is the word- spring puts on such a mighty pretty show.

You are so right, the glare of colour after dimmed days of illness makes you want to just revel in the senses! x
