i went out in search of ....


RHODODENDRONS!!
And, oh boy, did I find them!
Believe it or not, these are the late bloomers ~
there were so many more that had already bloomed and faded.
But these waited for my visit,
and I happily lost myself in their beauty!


the flowers that bloom in the spring
tra la


breathe promise of merry sunshine


as we merrily dance and we sing,
tra la


we welcome the hope that they bring
tra la


of a summer of roses and wine
of a summer of roses and wine


and that's what we mean when we say that a thing
is welcome as flowers that bloom in the spring


tra la la la la
tra la la la la
the flowers that bloom in the spring

  1. Oh Mikado!!! My dad is a HUGE Gilbert and Sullivan buff, so I grew up on the stuff "oh here's a howdy do!"

    I noticed how the rhodies blossomed like crazy this week!
