If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft
And of thy simple store two loaves of bread alone are left
Sell one, and with the dole,
Buy hyacinths to feed the soul.
~ Sa’di
In one brief period of sunshine, I caught the sun before it disappeared again.
Warmth, peace and calm inside.
Wishing YOU well and much joy.

Beautiful poem and fantastic photo!
I can almost smell them through my computer screen!
I know that spring is really coming when the hyacinths appear. They are just starting to push through the ground, but I have hurried the season along a little by having some inside. I love your blue hyacinth.
ooh, they are so lovely!
What a gorgeous photograph, and I love the words. You always inspire me.

Just lovely - fits the poem so well.
Hyacinth... one of my most favorite fragrance. During my most recent visit to the grocery, I happened to walk within about 15 feet of the floral department. Hyacinth! Spring!! I didn't buy them since the bulbs in my yard will soon (I hope) be blooming, but I was tempted.
Beautiful poem; beautiful photo.
Joy and light being wished your way as well:D
Lovely! I love how he is smelling the hyacinth. I have one in my office and it is so fragrant!
Oh yeah, hyacinths for the soul - an amazing photo!
Have a nice ne week
I absolutely have fallen in live with hyacinths in the latter years. I buy several every year for indoors and then plant them in the garden. I must now have over 50. They warm my heart.
Lovely poem and gorgeous photo.
Such a peaceful photo.
There is serenity in that photo, Snap. I'm glad you caught the fleeting rays as well as the sense of calm.
