"April showers bring May flowers ..." or so the saying goes.
This year April's showers were quite often of the snow variety. Now that we are a breath away from June, my peonies are finally starting to bloom.
And so very inspiring! After "oooohing" and "ahhhing" over the gorgeous scarlet red peonies - with the sunshine glowing through their fringed petals as they danced in the breeze - images of tiny gardens springing gloriously from gemstone rings came to mind. Whirls of copper and sterling wire grew like fern fronds. Red coral flowers burst forth from a garden of bright Irish moss green turquoise.
