Springtime Smiles




 Things that Made me Happy on the First Day of Spring


a hawk swooping into a tree on our campsite 

a long walk with the dogs

a picnic at the top of the falls at High Falls State Park

a family playing colorful parachute ball

turtles sunning themselves on the rocks at the bottom of the falls just beyond the rapids 

a son and his dad flying a kite 

baby fingers on the pine trees 

reading in the sun with my sherpa-slippered feet propped up

the Lionel Richie weekend radio songs

a grilled salmon dinner with my husband 

Welcome Spring 2021!

  2. "Baby fingers on the pine trees" reaches straight into my heart. Hawks swooping=living poetry (as are their cries). Sherpa-slippered feet...so much savoring on Day 1 of spring!

  4. Comments went twice astray: oops browser error, try again. I just wanted to how happy poem and pics make me. Maybe third time will be a charm...

  5. Wow, what a camping trip. Very nice photos. (I love the parachute. I think they are magical to play with and watch.) Your lined slippers and a good book were a lovely touch.
