Two steps forward and three steps back.
That seems to be the name of the Spring Game.
You all seemed to enjoy our big red camellia bush
so I thought I would pick some to bring inside
to show you how they would brighten up the kitchen.
It was a very sunny day when I did that
and by the time I was ready to take a photo,
the sun had disappeared and the rain came down.
The lighting was so bad
that you really couldn't tell
exactly what color the flowers were
so, I thought about the pretty
red and white checked tablecloth
that I used at Christmas
and thought that might do the trick
of brightening the room up...
...it helped a little but just not enough.
By this time,
the camellias were falling off the stems
and it was too wet to venture out to pick some more
so, I added a few faux red poppies
that I had stowed away
and that seemed to do the trick.
"There's no use in grumbling
When the rain drops come tumbling
Remember, you are the one
Who can fill the world with sunshine.
When you smile and you sing
Everything is in tune and it's spring
And life flows along
With a smile and a song."
