Looking forward

We were just about to go for a walk this afternoon when the heavens opened, so I decided on an indoor blip. I love tulips and had bought these for Christmas. I thought it quite appropriate that, as the year draws to a close and many look back over the past 12 months, it is also a time for looking forward into a new year, to new beginnings, to hope, to spring. So, here is my offering today, a flower of springtime.
