Daffodils buds are slow to pop open.
Hellebore blossoms that have been brave and faithful companions since mid-January continue to provide a colorful display, for which I am grateful, but it is totally unfair that they must continue to carry all of the garden entertainment burden.
If the sun will just quit hiding behind the clouds and provide the warmth and light we are in desperate need of, magical things will happen in the garden.
Swollen buds will be transformed into bowls of cream and pink perched along the top of magnolia branches.
Clusters of white flowers will explode from the tight pink buttons at the tips of viburnum branches.
Fern fiddles will rise from their tight knots and unfurl into delicate lacy fluffs of bright, spring green.
Best of all, I'll be able to locate the portal that will take me back to my garden where warm spring days are filled with light and the promise of exciting new discoveries. My inspiration will be restored.
