birds are singing once again
caressed by sunshine

spring+is+in+the+air

beauty chillin’

 

frost sparkles on trees,

catches prisms of sunshine

and glitters  landscape;

i stare in admiration

of God’s holiday lighting!

breathe prayer of thanks

Following surgery to remove melanoma, my dear friend’s PET scan is clear…no sign of cancer!

 

sunshine after snow

perfume of spring in the air

laughing daffodils

enjoy fun time with loved ones

make good memories today

sunshine takes a hike

to mountaintop meadow of

fragrant wildflowers;

highlights lofty evergreens,

ancient monarchs reign from cliff.
