Daffodils
She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbor:
“Winter is dead.”
~ A. A. Milne
Light from behind the clouds
“Let God’s promises shine on your problems.” ~Corrie Ten Boom
Along the path
“God has strewn our paths with wonders and we certainly should not go through Life with our eyes shut.” ― Alexander Graham Bell
Trickle of water
“Look! A trickle of water running through some dirt! I’d say our afternoon just got booked solid!” ~Bill Watterson

“Why, then, do we dread the clouds which now darken our sky? True, for a while they hide the sun, but the sun is not quenched; He will shine out again before long. Meanwhile those black clouds are filled with rain; and the blacker they are, the more likely they are to yield plentiful showers. How can we have rain without clouds?” ~C. H. Spurgeon
Daffodils
“No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow.” ~Unknown
An eagle in the clouds
During one of our recent walks, my husband pointed out this cloud formation that looked like an eagle’s head. It only lasted long enough to get a few shots before the higher winds swept it away.
~The clouds are always improvising, but the culprit is the wind.” ~Unknown
Empty nests
“I will protect you until you are grown, and then I will let you fly free. But loving you, that is for always.” ~Charlotte Gray
