Nature's Joy: Prose Poems by Yvonne Martinez Ward, Ph.D. | 
#5JoysFriday Nature edition!
1️⃣The Rose of Sharon tree we recently planted in memory of my Mom has started to bloom.
2️⃣I love the way the forest looks so moody after a heavy rainstorm.
3️⃣The Zinnias are starting to bloom! Better late than never. 😅
4️⃣These tomato plants self-seeded from last year‘s plants. Such a lovely surprise!
5️⃣Now that the sun is out, the pond view is spectacular. 🥰
Tagging anyone who needs a pick-me-up!
PurpleyPumpkin Thanks again for the tag @DebinHawaii It was a rough week for me as I‘ve been sick with some mysterious illness (Covid???) and this was just what I needed to remind me that joy is all around. 💜 4mo
DebinHawaii You are welcome! I find that the weeks that are harder to find the joy in are the ones where we need it the most! 💛💛💛 I hope you feel better soon! 🙏🏼 There is so much crud going around! Take care & thanks for joining in & spreading the joy with those gorgeous photos! 🤗 3mo
PurpleyPumpkin @DebinHawaii You are so right! I really did need this this week. And I'm starting to feel much better, almost myself again. All the best to you for the week ahead.🥰 3mo
