ten ways I am embracing spring (in February, but whatevs)
-
planting flowering bulbs in the frost-thawed soil
lounging (& snoozing) in soft patches of sunlight
skipping about in these pastel pink shoes
stuffing daffodils into old milk bottles on sunny windowsills
reading these poems by the wonderful Mary Oliver
washing the windows so the light can flood in
making little cardboard window boxes & tea-towel curtains for Orla’s playhouse
weaving a wreath from soft new green saplings
wearing this cheerful & quick new lip & cheek colour
drinking floral-frangranced tea on the doorstep, listening to early morning birdsong
What’s your favourite way to welcome Spring?
