Apple Blossoms


I thought the last freeze we had only several nights back was the doom to our apple blossoms.

 

Thankfully, I was wrong.

 



Today, all three apples trees are full of blossoms and bees.  As a light breeze blows, the petals release into the air like a delicate snowfall.

 

 
And, the scent…amazingly fresh, but subtle.  During my day, I make sure to take several trips past the trees to imbibe on the sweet scent.  I have only a few precious days during the season to take advantage of nature’s original apple blossom perfume. 

 

Then, come fall, I now know that I will have delicious, crunchy apples to savor. 

 

 
My apple angst has eased.
