Magnolia's Evening Song ...

“For the winter is passed. The rain is over and gone. The flowers are springing up. And the time of the singing of the birds has come.”

                 ~ Song of Solomon 2: 11-12

The first breaking bud of the season on my favorite pink magnolia tree shows off its beauty on an early April evening at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

Baby Magnolia ...

“All art is but imitation of nature.”

                      ~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca

                                       ~ 4 B.C.- 66 A.D.

Like awakening from a dream, the first breaking bud on my favorite magnolia tree at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania springs to life on an April evening.

Evening Kiss ...

"April love ...
Every star's a wishing star that shines for you,
April love is all the seven wonders,
One little kiss can tell you this is true."
                                                 
                    ~ "April Love"
~Theme song from the 1957 film "April Love"
              ~ Music by Sammy Fain,
                lyrics by Paul Francis Webster
                    ~ Recorded by Pat Boone

Sunset light kisses this beautiful breaking bud
on my favorite magnolia tree on a beautiful
April evening at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
