The Arrival of Spring

My lilacs are in bloom and the fragrance is sweet. They won't bloom if they do not get exposed to extreme cold. Funny how that works. They are purple. Spring around here has all the Joshua trees in bloom, rarely seen, but this year brings few lilac blossoms. In years past, the bush was loaded with lilac blossoms. I am grateful for the beautiful ones which did bloom. My bulbs are not up yet, but one daffodil came through in full bloom already. The yellow color was like the sun and the light. I really enjoyed its arrival. Nobody can hold back the roses this year. They are well to an explosion of color. Already the Joseph's Coat rose which is yellow red and orange is coming out. The quail seem to be everywhere and I even saw a bird's nest on my mesquite tree. What season is my life in now? Is it the Spring or the Fall? Fall and Winter were so unkind this year. I am glad they're gone.  It's difficult to be in the moment, but dwelling on the past or planning for the future is not what Spring is about. Welcome Spring.
