Happy Easter



Delicate. Ethereal. Pink.

Life and beauty sprung from craggy, scarred twigs.

An apt symbol of renewal for those of us celebrating Easter this weekend.





Another way of looking at old cherry trees: they are very much like some women of a certain age.

Despite the scars, they manage to carry on with grace, strength, and beauty.

Wishing for Spring! Have a lovely weekend.

Thanks for reading,
Linda Pakravan

N.B. It is too early for cherry blossoms. I took these pics last year in May 2015.

    There are cherry blossom here on the Island and they are much as you describe. I love the analogy. Happy Easter to you and yours!

    The cherry blossom is gorgeous and I was just thinking how late ours is in comparison before you mentioned that these are from last year - sending you Easter greetings Linda.

      Mid-May is really cherry blossom time here! But nothing is really growing here yet. Have a joyous Easter.

    Happy Easter, Linda! I spent a minute looking at my backyard today - the forsythia, crabapple and camellias are blooming. The hydrangeas are going to pop soon. I just love spring!!!!
