Description
Buttercups are one of the first flowers that we discover as children. They are classed as weeds, perhaps because they spread so easily. Children can pick as many as they like and nobody will complain. Then comes the little game which all children know. A buttercup is help up to somebody's chin and they are asked if they like butter. If the yellow colour of the flower reflects on the person's chin, then they 'like butter'. It's easy to take buttercups for granted, but when I came across this image on a cold and snowy last day of January, it felt like such a long time ago that I saw one last. As I gazed into my photo, I could feel the warmth of the sun again. I looked at the date of the photograph. It was early June, just four months away. What a wonderful reminder that in just four months, it will be summer! Before that must come the spring so it's not long to wait to see those wonderful yellow flowers again.
