A little spot of red in a gray world

I think about my mother every day. But usually the thoughts are fleeting - she crosses my mind like a spring cardinal that flies past the edge of your eye: startling, luminous, lovely... gone.

The robin and the cardinal share the food of the earth praying for better weather to arrive.

The raindrops hung on the branches yesterday. The rains washed against the earth promising Spring.  But this morning all we see outside is white once again as the nighttime storm sneaked quietly in once more.

    Lovely photos... Always love photos of rain drops... :-)

    Sorry about the "intruder" who came in the night. -pout- But it will melt! It will, it will, it will.

    We are having a weekend of rain, so our snow is receding. Ice too. So happy to see the thick ice, melting!
