I stepped outside to contribute the coffee grounds to the garden and it was much warmer outside than in. I came in, and even before making the new coffee, I opened my bedroom window to the spring. Such a relief to have fresh air in the house after all the furnace mess and cleanup.
Stepping outside to
warmer than inside the house
Open the windowsI paint daffodils
remembering the planting
so deep, years agoPlant them a foot down
with plenty of bone meal and
they’ll bloom happilyBelow daffodils
the daylilies are sprouting
later pleasures.
From the Quote Box:
The aim of art is not to represent the outward appearance of things, but their inner significance.
— Aristotle
