the sweet hum of hoverfly

Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge: Tour Guide
an echo of winter
clings to the corries
while melting snows
flow into the loch
once more
all that is green
grows and glows
in the morning sun
stars of blue
dance in deep water
while sand feels
warm underfoot –
so full of promise

Happy Monday to you all and we wish you a wonderful new week!
