Elizabeth, I love the way you incorporated the meaning of the color lavender, which is the color of Easter and springtime. Your photo really compliment the composition of your Tanka. This is excellent work! ❤

We already went through hyacinths and the forsythias. Raspberries are growing, drift roses are in bloom, maples have released their leaves. It’s a good time in NC.
