February

The daffodils grow in bright little clumps 

And the soft breeze blows away frost lumps.

As the winter disintegrates and the world reshapes.

Some cute little daffodils growing in my yard.

These beautiful fall colors show up once a year.      This cute bush of pink flowers blooms in the spring.  They even smell delicious! Yes, these are weeds that grow at the base of our tree, but they're beautiful weeds.
