Wow that is a hard journal prompt! And a beautiful post. ❤️❤️❤️ Spring is mirrored in my life now by growing hope, which has sometimes ebbed, but is now growing like the promise of cherries.

And today spring is mirrored in my life by thunderstorms... but I like the promise of cherries even more!

Yes, the storms today were amazing... Feels kind of like what's going on in the world in general, not knowing when lightning will strike... Cherries are an exciting prospect, too!

I loved your poem!

What a great way to put it:

"littering the grass

with compostable confetti

to celebrate the birth of spring"

This image will stay with me for a long time ... 🌸

It's falling like crazy today in the gentle breeze! Fingers crossed for lots more jars of cherry compote and jam to fill the shelves in the pantry.

That definitely looks like spring, beautiful pictures and that kalács looks delicious 😋 I know you say there's cherry blossoms everywhere, but still, I'd love to go to Japan one day!

I would love to go to Japan one day, too! It is very sunny here too, however, and the air sells like flowers... So I can be happy with this spring for awhile. I hope your autumn is as beautiful as our spring is!!! ❤️

It's always nice to travel ♥ and see new and interesting landscapes. I would definitely go back to the Pacific Northwest for a handful of forest-fresh salmonberries.
