Torej je res! Pomlad se v resnici prebuja... Blogerji jo čutijo in se ji klanjajo...

Teloh je pa tisto najnežnejše in najtoplejše, kar pride na plano...

Zelo lepo...

Good work, Polona!
So you were out hiking when you came upon this flower?
Such a pretty flower!
I enjoyed this one very much!
Thank you!

How beautiful! I adore hellebores, but there are none in the local woods ...

Masago said...

So tender, had seen these before.

J. Andrew Lockhart said...

I love to see the green :)

Ashi said...

Nice found Polona, I have only to look out the window to ours garden Hellebore, (maybe I too should tag this comment: where has my fitness gone ):)

floots said...

i'm always glad of an excuse for a rest so i really identified with this one :)

Ričardas said...

Beautiful catch. In moments like this I think - do I need hard work if most beautiful things are just here in the tiny flower, then I get hungry and has to go to work :)

jem said...

I love the double meaning in 'catching my breath'. And you've also reminded me how powerful it is to use specific names of plants and animals etc in writing - their unique sounds really add something.

Wisdom Of Heart said...

When I saw your pic and words my thougts were.....I'm catching a breath, because I saw somthing beatiful - hellebore. I love your work.

Ze, ze?

Oh, kako krasno izgleda vonj po pomladi.

Lepo bodi.

Catching one's breath often reveals the unexpected.
You still have flowers in winter?

polona said...

patricija: yes, that's one of the possible interpretations. well perceived, thank you.

I needed to look up the word -- hellebore. Don't know if they grow in the U.S. Lovely!

dsnake1 said...

need the exercise. :)

thanks for a great post.

Masago said...

Woops, I meant I had NOT seen these before.

Vidiš, predobro mi je že šlo tole z biologijo... No, hvala, ker mi širiš obzorje. Res nisem vedela, da je teloh zimski. Kaj pa zvončki in mačice?

Lep večer, Lucija

polona said...

boulies: i don't think they do.
and thank you

dsnake: ah, you read the labels :o)
thank you

masago: yep, i don't think they grow in america

lucija: no ja, to je vse relativno... vsekakor oboje najdeš že pozimi, a zvončki imajo epitet prve pomladne cvetlice
