Heralds of the Spring



The winter in our lovely country has actually lasted for the past two years or at least that is what it seems like.
I cannot remember when I last wore my light weight summer clothing but hey! we live in hope and just now I have
a bowl full of sweet smelling blue and white hyacinths in the lounge and gold and white narcissi growing up and of
course January brings along these dainty green and white snowdrops which look as though the slightest wind might knock the down but are in fact as tough as old boots as they force their way through the icy ground giving us renewed hope
and some of their strength to face whatever might come our way and still look good.   Oh! how I am longing to see them again in 2013.
