Monday in Seattle. Picture and Quote for the Week, To A Snow-Drop


snowdrops, Discovery Park, Seattle

Lone flower, hemmed in with snows and white as they
But hardier far, once more I see thee bend
Thy forehead, as if fearful to offend,
Like an unbidden guest. Though day by day,
Storms, sallying from the mountain-tops, waylay
The rising sun, and on the plains descend;
Yet art thou welcome, welcome as a friend...

~ from To A Snow-Drop by William Wordsworth
