Color has returned to the May House landscape.
I waited awhile for it…sometimes patiently, sometimes pleading with the petals to unfold.
And then, while staring at one flower, another one blooms.
It seemed as though the apples reddened overnight, unbeknownst to me, and very-well-knownst to the red finches. They have been sharing with me, a few apples here and there.
The yellow roses are the sneakiest of all the flowers in the May House garden–and always a sweet surprise.
These friends have been enjoying making shooting stars.
Sometimes I imagine a world of blanket-sized rose petals that I get to sleep under, fragrant and sun-warmed.

Wow. Love the colors and soft textures…..the birds are eating your apples? too smart!
I have some of your photos in a collage on the wall next to my side of the bed. These look a lot like those. Do I see an apple pie in your future? I am glad that May House has bloomed again for your eyes and the ey of your camera–these photos make your yard seem like it’s right next door.
Love, Mom
