Oh, it's lovely. My new apple trees are still too small to produce apples, but I did notice two tiny blooms on one of them. Woo Hoo for apple trees.

I was fascinated watching the breeze blow the blossoms. it looked like snow falling.

I am with Ms. Lee! Your poem is delightful and the photo is beautiful!

Thank you Kevin. I could sit on the kitchen porch step and just watch. We have bunnies, squirrels, turkeys and deer.

Barbara, in the words of Ed the Head Toker "kool beans"! I love this photo and the ditty.

The hint at Joyce Kilmer is all that's needed to let the picture speak for itself. Well done, Barbara.

Oh, I'm so jealous. I miss fruit tree blossoms - the smell, the petals blowing in the wind and landing on my face, forcing the buds to open in a pretty vase. I think your words are delightful. Of course, orange blossoms are nice but I'll always be partial to apple trees.
