On a Bed of Snowdrops

Laying in a bed of snowdrops is deliciously comfortable. A telltale sign that spring is here and warm weather is on its way is when you capture the little green shoots of the snowdrop peering through the soil. Each day you walk by hoping to catch the first sight of the nodding white flower. Several varieties even offer you the promise of spring by blooming in January and February. The nicest time to make a bed of snowdrops is on the first warm spring day when you find that special spot where snowdrops carpet the woodland floor. Who cares how many people are around? Just curl up with a favorite book and get the sensation. I guarantee it's more refreshing than a Peppermint Patty on top of Mt. McKinley. ;)
