“Here are the tulips,
budded and full-blown,
their swoops and dips,
their gloss, and poses,
the satin of their darks.”
– Margaret Atwood
drenched in sunshine
glossy cups filled with light
gold chalice of hope

Inspiring verses and photography! Mary, thanks for sharing these. As my wife would attest to, there are few things in nature as beautiful as a tulip.
