Growth surges now, like green fire.
The wisteria drapes gracefully, flowing like water
The lilac opens its many tiny buds
Azaleas are juicy with colour

Foliage textures make visual counterpoint

Salal berry embryos strive toward wholeness
The arbutus trees are flowering now

they drop dainty seed pods

that pepper everything,
making you remember that Nature is alive and afoot…
just like Magic is alive and afoot…
like in the old song….
