Maybe, Perhaps.......at last....




A walk down 21st Street yesterday morning revealed:


shy little bits of fruit blossom


daffodils -- the pale kind I like best


and Lenten Roses.

In the immortal words of PB Shelley:

If winter comes
can spring be far behind?




Yipee!

    Your NY is so much more appealing than anyone elses NY- You have a magic camera and special vision!
    Spring is being cranky here.

    I so adore/envy the green lushness of NY that you show us.
    That is the one thing I miss living in the desert.
    Not that we don't have our own spring extravaganza but it is quite different.

    cheers, parsnip

    Great pictures! I'd love to come to NY in the spring, I've been twice, both times in December. It was great but might be nice to not have to wear 3 layers of clothes, scarves and earmuffs everywhere!

    Beautiful photos. I especially loved the one with the "Walking Stick" tree. I bought a small one last fall and hope that it will survive this Spring. See you soon.

    It snowed in Cleveland yesterday. Our fragile little crocuses were all covered up.

    Your first picture of the tiny budding blossoms reminds me of a Japanese painting. Absolutely rich!

    Yes, Yipee! The blossoms and flower can cheer up a day like magic. Thanks for the beautiful photographic preview of things that will happen here in a month or so.

    I am not sure if we can celebrate Spring just yet, E, until we see if we have snow on the ground tomorrow! Let's hope it warms up a little soon

    Elizabeth, I love that Yippee so much and it's great to see that others have also cheered it.

    Can you believe that we might wake to yet more snow? I am going to say special prayers tonight.

    Enough winter weather is enough, isn't it?

    Even so, you photographs are great, and you've find a way to make the current light a treat.
