Finding The Green In Spring

I stepped outside this morning in 24 degree weather to put a letter in the mailbox.  You would have thought it was spring the way all the birds were singing.  I couldn’t see the birds but one of the sounds I heard sounded like a meadowlark.

Awe, spring!  I thought….it sounds like spring so maybe I could find something green, other than our pine trees, that would make it feel like spring.

 

Out in our garden spot, I brushed away some dirt and dead leaves and actually found some green, frozen-in-time green, but hey, it was still a smidgen of green.

 

Defeated from my quest to find something really green, I headed back to the house and it was there, right on the ground, that I spotted green.  It wasn’t the green I was hoping to find but still, it actually made my day…………….it was a bright green in the mist of brown, greys and dullness……….a part that my husband uses in his work.  I know, weird, but this little bit of green lying on the ground actually made my day!
