The Sweetest Green

I'm tired, hungry, cold and have dirt under my fingernails, but I'm content. Taking a break from working in my flower beds. Cleaning out the dead stuff. Exposing the few inches of new green. Is there a more gorgeous color? That fresh vibrant green...after seeing brownness for months on end?

The boldly colorful, hearty pansy...that can withstand the early cold of spring when the heart needs flowers.
