''A Vignette of Nature'' Enhanced

A bloom breaks out afresh from its swollen, green bud and then stretches skyward into the sun-infused sky. A feature of nature that's timeless and perennial, it faithfully flowers and adorns its surroundings like its predecessors. Never alone, and joined by its floral neighbors of its own kind in fragrant numbers, it suffuses the atmosphere all around with a heavy, yet sweet stench of lavender and honeysuckle. The thick odor attracts and entices the flower- borne bees, hornets, and yellow-jackets nearby into a steady, rhythmic pulse of continuous, busy labor over the perfumed blossoms and vibrantly-tinted petals. From an adjacent pond the over-abundant and majestic beauty of the lily-of-the-valleys add its distinctiveness to the already rich and vibrant, floral landscape, now teeming with the vibrancy of spring:— so lush with fulsomeness of life and movement!
