Once upon a time, bright colored bushes butted up against cobalt blue skies, the sun shone brightly and warming, intensifying the contrast of colors in the garden.
Once upon a time, I walked everyday in the garden, having to remove my sweater and carry a bottle of water due to the warm sun.
Once upon a time, our dependence smiled in the garden and the shrubs, wildflowers, vegetable and herb gardens were happy and proud to show off their colors.
Once upon a time, we lingered over meals outside
admiring the view of the city which was delicately cast in the softest hues of ochre and salmon
What nostalgia...once upon a time it was spring!

Mary, your flowers are absolutely stunning -- and not a fairy tale, but reality! I hope the sun comes back very soon to remind you of that. It sounds as if you have had more than enough rain.
