The last dance

Photo essay: Life is visibly budding again

by shahireh sharif

Once more life is coming out of hibernation. Nature tries to please existence by offerings of colourful blossoms skilfully arranged in the hanging baskets of branches. Angels recycle all the forgotten loves into the will to live and sprinkle it onto the entire hemisphere. Protected by spring, light dares to stand up for its equal share of the daytime. Snowflakes are making their final transitory performance on the dance floor before being sacrificed at the presence of heat. The green metamorphism of wood is not far. The symphony of continuation formed by the interlocking distant notes of animals calling for their mates becomes a familiar melody, even in remote meadows. Life is visibly budding again.

(The pictures are taken on 6 April 2008 in Stockport, UK. Picture 14 reminds me of the map of Iran; do you see it?)

... we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant.

Thank You so much for sharing your Beautiful Pictures.

Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.(Robert Frost)

 

Regards,Mona :)
