The sun’s powerful rays
warm and heal
our corner of the world!
Returned birds soar
amid clear blue skies.
A gaggle of geese gingerly trek
across a nearby clearing.
Dancing deer cross roads and flick
their whitetails for all to see.
A flock of eager turkeys
squawk and invade the yard
as the Tom struts with confidence
unmatched,
showing off for
gathering hens.
.
Our pond beautifully springs to
life once again, sprouting
tranquil yellow
flowers.
The pond plunges into the brook,
swirling and bubbling,
emitting sounds of peace.
Welcome
mud caked driveways
and open windows
with an
an inhale of fresh air!
It’s finally spring in
this neck of woods!
I’m happy that I can start walking again and being outside more
that spring is here.
I feel like I’ve been cooped up for too long
and it’s time for a release in nature and a dose of the earth.
I hope this post finds you all thriving and loving every moment of May!
All my Best,
Heart and Soul
Beautiful post Mary and it brings back memories of our home in the country and all the wildlife and spring flowers 🙂

We’re in the middle of beautiful days here– I open the back door every afternoon for the sunshine and breeze to come in. it will get hot in July and August– but since we’re close to the ocean, it usually cools off at night. Are you putting in our garden yet?? Happy spring! xox

Happy Spring to you! The back door open to the breeze and sun sounds wonderful! that must be magical living by the ocean! We have sunshine and nice temperatures and many mountains, not as big as the Rockies but big enough. I”m thinking of testing my garden soil soon and tilling it. I”ll probably plant seeds by late May and the plants the first of June. xoxo

Hi Rhonda, I will post the planting, growth and everything! Right now the plot must be tilled and tested and in a couple of weeks we plant. How are your plants? Do you have potted or planted veggies?

Don’t you just adore garden veggies? I do…I can’t wait until July and August when I can start picking. Right now we are testing our soil and tilling. We will plant in a few weeks.

Yes yes! We are picking Swiss chard now– and watching our neighbor, Mr. Wick’s amazing garden through the fence. His tomato plants must be 6 feet tall! He’s our garden hero!! Happy planting Mary!1
