Picture Reflected Stop

The faintest chartreuse
on the gray hillsides
Rust-colored baby leaves
on our neighbor’s tree
Pregnant green buds
on the lilac bush
I stop cleaning long enough
to take a mental picture
of life reflected
in these hints of color

Linda, I'm glad you took the time to stop cleaning and share your lovely thoughts.
We should all take a moment like this every day to look around.
A moment kept! Very nice!
Nature always has something to share with those of us willing (like yourself) to stop and look at it. Thanks for sharing such beautiful images. I love this time of year because so much life and color enters my senses. Have a nice day.

It's wonderful to be able to capture details as you do
It's always so nice to stop and be in the moment with our surroundings. I find cleaning to bring me back to the tiny details. Good job!
Gorgeous choice of words. They bring a sense of "painting" alive!
