Every winter, When the great sun has turned his face away,
The earth goes down into a vale of grief,
And fasts, and weeps, and shrouds herself in sables,
Leaving her wedding-garlands to decay--
Then leaps in spring to his returning kisses.
The earth goes down into a vale of grief,
And fasts, and weeps, and shrouds herself in sables,
Leaving her wedding-garlands to decay--
Then leaps in spring to his returning kisses.
It's Spring!!!

I bet that smells good.
Our Hyacinths are up also. I can smell one as I type this. Nice shot, I can almost smell that one too!
Happy WW!
That's a nice picture, and a fitting quote! :)
to everybody: thanks for dropping by... and it really feels good to be in spring now... with this sky, the sun and a hyacinth-perfumed air, the blues goes away :)...
The colour of the hyacinth is so subtle, gorgeous flower. I love the poetic words from winter to spring; who could describe this metaphormosis better?
