A few weeks ago I went to the botanical garden in hopes of finding some spring blooms.

 I was in luck.

 

 The tulips were blooming.

 

The tulips make me want to paint,

Something about the way they drop

Their petals on the tabletop

And do not wilt so much as faint

It was a nice day to walk about and take pictures.
