Unmatched spring beauty
Sturdy and among the first

peaking green slivers
slender and slow to emerge
standing tall will come

Come with the whispers of spring
Blanket the landscape

Bold little iris
Welcome showy blues of blues
Linger till spring comes

Flowers give such meaning and beauty to our lives. The iris got its name from an ancient Greek Goddess who used the rainbow to bridge heaven and earth.
Stoic survivors
Gentle herds of herbivores
Wild on the landscape

Tara feeds the deer that visit her property, as well as the foxes and raccoons.
Yes, deer will eat your shrubs and flowers, but there are certain species they will overlook, unless they are starving. Read up and save your garden.
Snug bird space ready
Shoppers come daily to view
Moving in come spring

Who knew? Stand-ins for the President Elect and the coming First Lady…stand-ins for VP Elect and his wife…practice…practice…practice walks down the steps of the US Capitol to the podium… to assigned seats…walking down Pennsylvania Avenue…waves to imaginary crowds…one big, huge dress rehearsal for the nation’s 58th Presidential Inaugural swearing-in and the Inaugural Parade. This past Sunday was a dry-run… a stunning effort to address this immensely…monumental logistical, security, protocol, media coverage, crowd control quadrennial inaugural event. As a golden who does not like to miss anything…here’s the schedule of events…Hail to the Chief!
So very proud.

Conspicuous on the landscape
His red steals the show
