You know it felt good to be rid of that rain
In Odessa you have to remember your name
'cause there ain't no one for to comb over your mane

A Spectacular Spectacle!

"2009 Cherry Blossom Festival"

The Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington DC was everything it was billed as, and more! The beautiful, deep blue sky made for a magnificent background for these willowy pink and white buds.

The photography club went down for a day trip Saturday, along with a few million others, and we were not disappointed. In fact, we were surprised by the kindness extended by fellow strangers. We befriended a couple young women who walked with us for a good bit of the afternoon. Others were generous with directions and pleasantries. Although it was super-crowded, the mood was one of awe in God's splendor.

"Dizzying Daffodils"

Odessa, Delaware

"Daffodils" 

I wander'd lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:

I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

circa 1804 by William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
