The Duds of Buds



And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
Maybe this year will be better than the last

It's not their fault.

Every year they are misled like a sailor on leave. Promise, expectation and then "wham!"-it all goes wrong.

What of doth he speaketh?

Our Tulip tree. Year after year, the promise of spring is fed through warm weather. They start to follow nature's course.
Winter comes again and spoils everything. Kind of reminds me of certain people, yes?

So, all I ask, is for your good wishes that this year the buds will wait and NOT be tricked again.

When the tree fully blossoms, the aroma is heavenly-beyond description.

So...

wish that the buds

are not duds.
