After the snow and rain and flooded fields
the sunlight returned . . .
and the winds

The cotoneaster leaves have finally appeared in the midst of this stormy springtime rain. The grass is greening, and two clumps of blue wild flax plants have emerged among the plumping tulip bulbs. I thought for a while that Spring would not displace Winter, this year.
snow flurries
no longer melting as snowflakes
cover the ground
Looking forward to the green grass and buds on the tree branches. The waterfowl are returning. I have heard them calling amongst themselves as they fly to their summer homes. And I miss my flower flies.
When is it too cold to snow? It’s too cold for taking photographs outside without swapping out my moccasins for snow boots.

a squirrel in the window
stares at me
I know it will disappear
when sunlight warms the glass
