I KNEW SPRING WAS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER....I COULD TELL BY THE FEW SPARSLEY BRIGHT YELLOW AND RED LILIES AND TULIPS I HAD POPPING UP AROUND MY HOUSE.
.NOW THE GROUND IS NOTHING BUT RED CLAY WHERE I LIVE UNDER ALL THE GRASS SO NEEDLESS TO SAY IF I GET ANYTHING TO LIVE AFTER I PLANT IT,,I CONSIDER MYSELF DOING GOOD ALTHOUGH THE GRASS AND WEEDS CAN FIND A WAY TO GROW...SO WHEN MY MEASLY PUNY AND SCRAWNY LITTLE FLOWERS DO COME UP I TRY TO SALVAGE THEM AS LONG AS I CAN BEFORE THEY DISAPPEAR..
.THE GRASS WAS STARTING A SLOW TURN FROM BROWN TO A BRIGHT BRIGHT GREEN...THE BIRDS WERE A CHIRPING AND THE SPRING PEEPERS COULD BE HEARD IN THE QUIET OF THE COUNTRY SIDE...THE TREES LINING BOTH SIDES OF THE DRIVEWAY WERE FULL OF BLOOM WITH THE ARRIVAL OF SPRING COMING.
.THE ROBINS WERE TRYING TO BEAT THE SPARROWS UP FOR TRYING TO KEEP THEM OUT OF THEIR BIRDHOUSE...YES ..SPRING IS IN THE ARE OR RATHER WAS...AND I KNEW IT ONCE UPON A TIME.
..SO NOW MY FLOWERS ARE GONE.LONG BEFORE THEY SHOULD HAVE..BUT I ENJOYED THEM AFTER THEY WERE SCARFED UP BECAUSE AS YOU CAN SEE THEY MADE A PRETTY PICTURE.....ESPECIALLY WHEN THE TEN LITTLE PULLY PICKY THINGS THAT SNATCHED MY FLOWERS UP WERE ATTACHED TO THIS....SHE WAS SO EXCITED WHEN SHE CAME RUNNING UP ON THE PORCH HOLLERING ..GRANDMA...I PICKED YOU SOME FLOWERS...WELL ,,,,TRYING NOT TO SNIFFLE ,,I SAID ..."WELL...HOW PRETTY AND THANKED HER...."SHE WAS SO PROUD TO BRING ME THOSE FLOWERS AND WHAT THE HECK THEY WOULD SOON BE DYING OFF ANYWAYS..AND THEN SHE ADDED THEM TO MY AND HER HAIR WHICH LASTED A WEE BIT LONGER......
ONCE UPON A TIME ...ONCE UPON A TIME ....ONCE UPON A TIME.......

Ahhhhhh...how cute! Carrie came and picked all the flowers that were in the pot on the patio. She too was so happy to give them to me after she picked them. I was nice. I thanked her also.
