FRIEND OR FAUX...

Red sky in morning

Sailors take warning...

Spring,

 who is a friend of mine, 

has stopped by the Cottage

 the last few mornings.

  She doesn't stay very long. 

 Usually by late afternoon,

 she is gone and 

Old Man Winter takes her place.

  A few mornings of sunshine 

is just enough to brighten 

a flower's ability to stand tall,

 but the hard rain that falls 

in the evening 

will dash their hopes

once again.

We may not have control 

of what happens outside,

 but in our homes, 

cozy and warm,

 we can fool Mother Nature 

whenever we want 

and bring the foes

 to their knees!

The only flowers blooming 

in the garden now are 

camellias and daffodils.

 I have brought a few indoors 

and with a little help

 from some "friendly faux" 

they can stand tall 

and make a 

happy spring statement.

I have made good friends 

with more of the "affordable" pillows 

that I have found on Amazon:

I can't get enough

of these little gems.

 For less than $5 apiece 

(most are cheaper), 

I am expanding my pillow collection 

by leaps and bounds.

 For only the price of 

two pillow forms,

 I am beginning to have pillows 

for every season and holiday 

and the workmanship

is far above 

what you would expect

 when something is offered

 at these prices.

Hopefully,

 our foes will be 

fewer and farther between, 

and our friends will continue 

to be the light 

in our lives.
