Anticipation
Apologies, syrupy Hallmark moment ahead…
Ya wanna know the great thing about spring?
The anticipation of lovely garden promises soon to be fulfilled.
(Right, Hallmark prose done)
Had a nice albeit whirlwind holiday in the US acquainting ourselves with new environs. The cottage is very cute, small by American standards, but suits us well.
What got my heart pumping was…(okay, I should probably complete this sentence with ‘… being reunited with my husband after many weeks.’)
But what really got my heart pumping was…the garden.
A veritable Eden filled with blooms and blooms-to-be. Immediately, I found myself anticipating what the remaining months of spring would bring, knowing that some flowers would come and go before I’d return to see them. Sigh. Still, it was satisfying to witness their infancy. Will definitely need to reacquaint myself with local flora. And will also need a bit of study on a new topic…
…grapes.
