A Trip to the Plant Nursery . . .

Today the thermometer read eighty-seven. 

Only a week ago the morning kept us shivering with rain and a sharp breeze. 

As the Sun's brightness actually over heated my just emerging from winter skin, 

my hands itched to touch plants and soil.

 I dragged the kids to the nursery . . .

Not planning to buy anything . . .

 Just to scour the rows and rows of cheery plants awaiting their moment to join the earth. 

Well heck, I'd  be a little dotting to bring three reluctant pioneers to this plant haven, without expecting to leave the premises with a small token to remember it by.

 The colors connected with my camera as only colors do . . . And I left, not sure if I felt more full from the click, clicking of my finger, 

or the actual plants themselves.
