Happy Spring everyone! We are still freezing here in my city in Canada, but last week I saw the first signs of spring while visiting New York City. Those tiny purple flowers on the ground made me smile.
Tanka Tuesday this week is a theme prompt: Fire and Water, below is my poem where I’ve chosen sunshine for fire and icy for water. Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks, Colleen! Yes, it’s almost spring around here too, lots of rain, so spring should be close by. I planted tulips bulbs in the fall, they should be getting ready to show up!

The first flowers are the most inspiring ones, here we are still in winter, cold and no flowers.
