Spring Synethesia

This has been a year

Of extended blooms 

And profuse meanings 

Spring synesthesia

Everywhere abounds

Daffodils for three weeks

Straight and the magnolia 

Still in all its glory 

While just now the cherry tree

Has let loose its charms

I ran into our neighbor Alicia today who is the incoming president of our local garden club. She confirmed my suspicion that the cool and damp weather this April has gifted us with extended blooms, from one end of the garden to the other, it's like a florist's cold storage out there, and what's good for the flowers must also be good for the bees, who are already back in business, the hives roaring back to life.  Photo by @marrisabridge.
