Spring Dance ...

"So the darkness shall be the light,
and the stillness the dancing."
                                       ~ T.S. Eliot
                                                      1888-1965

Blossoms of a flowering tree dance
in the evening breeze this spring at
Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania. 

In The Pink ...

"I believe in pink ... I believe that tommorrow is another day,
and most importantly, I believe in miracles."
                                                 ~ Audrey Hepburn

Nothing says spring like a flowering cherry tree on an 
April day at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania. 

You Fill Up My Senses ...

"You fill up my senses,
like a night in the forest
like the mountains in springtime
like a walk in the rain ..."
          "Annie's Song"
                     ~ John Denver, 1974

A magnolia blossom fills the senses with beauty
on an April day at Trexler Memorial Park,
Allentown, Pennsylvania. 

Stirring ...

"Love is the only flower that grows and blossoms
without the aid of the seasons."
                                                               ~ Kahlil Gibran

I love magnolia trees, and this breaking bud shows spring was stirring 
this weekend at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania. 

Little Pink Houses ...

"Oh, but ain't that America
For you and me
Ain't that America
Something to see, baby
Ain't that America
Home of the free, yeah
Little pink houses 
For you and me
Oooh, yeah
For you and me."
                       ~ "Pink Houses"
                                       ~ John Cougar Mellencamp 

The  1983 John Cougar Mellencamp song "Pink Houses" popped
into my mind when I saw this charming house bedecked for 
St. Patrick's Day in Belvidere, New Jersey last weekend.
Belvidere is a charming Victorian town located on the banks 
of the Pequest and Delaware Rivers.

May Mystique ...

"Nothing is as real as a dream."
                                         ~ Tom Clancy

The mystique of May in bloom at 
Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.
