Sycamore Buds


Way back in february i spied the sycamore buds,
a promising glimpse of green on skeleton limbs of trees...

25th February

hopefully i waited.....
and waited....
no change
at least not on the outside....
still i waited...

7th April

and suddenly in april they began to swell....
the energy that had been building inside broke loose...

10th april

a visible daily change...

14th april

how exciting
just watching the rate of growth increase... 

16th april

as if they suddenly got the message
and realised what they were supposed to be doing...

17th april

feeling the impetus, 
that once unleashed can not be halted...

19th april

S-your patience has resulted in a great series - one can feel the juices and energy of the trees once they know the time is right. Thanks. Go well. B

Sycamores. Being an Oregonian, I'm not even sure what they look like, but the name makes them sound so lovely and comforting. And I love that anticipation that comes from observing any tree buds open. You've captured it beautifully.
