A Crocus Tale

Spring comes late in the Pacific Northwest. The purple crocus wait patiently . . .





amidst hailstorms and gloom. You can almost imagine their conversations.
Is it time yet? Is it time?



I think so. The sun is out today, if only for a bit.


Yes. Yes! The sun is out!




Let's Bloom! In fact . . .

Let's have a Blooming Party!!!


Crocus make me smile. How about you?

I know Danni - they look like little smiling faces peeking up at you, huh? Happy Flowers!

My crocus were blooming. Now they're under snow. Hope they're still there when it melts.

Susan - I hope your crocus are still there when the snow melts, too! Plants sometimes have amazing resilience.

wilsonc - yep, those little faces are so happy they just look like they're partying!
