# APRIL Photo Walk... There's Yellow and there's Yellow!

Sorry everyone... I am having such a wonderful time looking at all the amazing photographs you are taking and reading your posts; I just couldn't resist a Floss rhyme x

There's Yellow .

********

This photo walk has really clicked

With me and others too.

And put a real spring in our steps

Upon the walks we do.

*****

I know, that when I'm running.

I take in the things I see.

But this April yellow challenge,

Has meant quite a change for me.

*****

Whilst walking at the slower pace,

I'm not just looking round..

I'm looking for the colours;

Up above and on the ground.

*****

There are so many shades of yellow

Of every tint and hue.

The flowers, the shrubs, the berries,

The leaves and foliage too.

*****

There's beauty in all those colours

From deepest rich to pale.

The glossy round, fat berries

The primrose petals, frail.

*****

Some yellow, that is stopping

All the traffic until May

With row on row of barriers,

Stopping travellers on their way.

*****

Each photo that I'm taking is

Just adding to the fun

The photos that I'm seeing here

I'll be sorry when it's done

*****

So thanks for this eye-opener,

It's really made each day.

I hardly dare to thinks what's next..

The Darling Buds of May ??

*****

Its such fun ! x

Hi WillowandSola, what was the name of that yellow flower I posted on one of your posts the other week. I've posted it above on Oldfloss's post 😁

SueAppleRun in reply to OldManRunning

Datura or Brugmansia, it's highly perfumed at night but also highly poisonous
