Snow Crabs


One of my favorite blooms each Spring are these crab apples we planted a decade ago.
Their fragrance is so sweet and fleeting.
I made every one in my family walk out to stand under them and inhale.
They only bloom for a few days before Spring showers and winds make a snowstorm of soft petals.
The flowers are gone now, to make way for lush green leaves.
Until next Spring, my lovely Snow Crab Apples.
