April Blossom

Pleasing blossom
lighting up grey sky,
petals pirouette like
flakes of snow to
sound of April
showers and gusty
wind that blows,
they kiss the grass
and yellow daffodils,
blooms already fading;
pink drifting here and
there on swirling breezes,
resembling floating confetti
at a bride and grooms wedding.
Photo is my own.

Beautiful, colour-laden images of spring

Is that your photo, Jenny? I so like the comment that the blossom lightens up the grey sky (which we are getting so much at present, in between some lovely sunshine!). That blossom is so lovely both on the trees and when falling as snowflakes or confetti - sometimes a whole avenue of it!
Your description of it in these strong winds and showers is striking! Thank you. Rhiannon

jacarandas
What are the purple blossoms in your photo Jenny? Pretoria is known as the Jacaranda City. Every road is lined with jacarandas their flowers are purple the whole city is purple in October, also called thus the october month city, especially if you look down from high ground or tall buildings. The whole place is purple it's beautiful. Well that's far off still!

Purple rain
Purple rain, the belief was that if a flower falls on your head you will do well in your final exams. Probably would have worked better if you studied instead of standing underneath a Jacaranda tree all day. Apart from that the purple flowers stain your car tough stains.
Keep well! Tom
