a sure sign of spring




i have been watching and waiting for these to bloom for a few weeks.
my favorite chair sits in the window that is almost level with the top branches of this tree.
i've watched as the buds went from the first signs of spring color, to the flowers now in full bloom amongst all the new leaves that have popped up on the boulevard.
the ground has started to get sticky and slick with the fallen petals and soon all the flowers will be replaced by new leaves, but as they last, i will enjoy them, and hope that the lilacs down the street will take up the next bloom.
