I went out in the garden to find a sprout and lo and behold I found many sprouts. It is sprouting everywhere at the moment, despite the snow that falls now and again. The red sprouts are the first ones to venture their sprouty heads out of the ground. Some time in the next few weeks they will turn green and eventually, hopefully at whitsun, they will flower. They are the beginnings of my peony crop. In German they are called Pfingstrosen meaning translated Whit roses.

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

My peonies are hardly more than little red nubs only just breaking the ground at the moment – but now the weather is warming up hopefully they’ll start to sprout properly soon enough 🙂

Here too. The crocus and snowdrops since a few weeks, but everything has slowed down debtor the cold temperatures. My daffodil buds have still not opened, but are ready
