a misty spring garden

I've just been out in the garden. The tulip colors are vibrant during the misty drizzle--burgandy, pink, yellow and orangy-red with little droplets of water on their leaves, nestled in among the new green leaves of spring shrubs. Mt Fuji Cherry is in full bloom with billows of white blossoms heavy on its branches. Birds are inspecting the freshly painted bird houses, all up for rent in exchange for a song. Spring---I wish it could linger longer.
