Walk With Me

It’s a chilly February morning. The sun is peeking out over the tops of the frosted white trees, birds are singing as they wake up...the garden is beckoning. I know, it’s chilly out, but put on a sweater and walk with me.

The snow has left a few plants uncovered. Look, a few frozen and frosted pink roses.

The red holly berries and spiny green leaves stand out against the white snow. The birds haven’t eaten all the berries yet.

The stark branches of the ash tree point towards the cloudless, blue sky. This lovely tree will be one of the first to shoot out green leaves.

A few wrinkled leaves from the moonflower vine still cling to the frosted archway.

Yeah, I’m cold now too. Let’s put on a pot of coffee and sort through my seed catalogs. This winter won’t last forever....
