Le cri des hirondelles, un de mes sons préférés, avec le ressac de la mer et des vagues, et les rires de bébés.
Nous avons tous cru que le printemps passait son tour, bousculé par l'été.
Et hier encore, le ciel bleu offrait un écrin parfait aux roses déjà gorgées de soleil...

Swallows arrived on saturday, filling the air with their light strident shout.
The sound of the swallows is one of my favorites, with the sound of the waves and the laughing of the babies.
All of us believed that spring left its turn for summer.
And still yesterday, the blue sky offered a perfect box for the sunny roses ...
Mais ce matin, la pluie est arrivée en invitée surprise, remplaçant la rosée sur les pétales des fleurs...
La chaleur est là, ainsi que la douceur de l'air . Les hirondelles se cachent, désolées de nous avoir donné de fausses joies, mais on les entend voler entre deux gouttes ; Et cependant, la pluie tombe gaiement..
~~
But this morning, rain came back as a surprising guest, as a substitute of the dew on the petals of the flowers.
The heat is there, the air is sweet. The swallows are hidding,but we can hear them between the drops ; And then, rain keeps cheerfully falling..
Le proverbe a raison, une hirondelle ne fait pas le printemps!
~~
The proverb is right, a swallow does not mean spring!

It is sort of funny, but we have exactly the same saying ("en svale gjør ingen sommer"). It must have been spreading around Europe in some way.
And when I read the text... I recognize that too :-)
Et bien si chez toi aussi il pleut, je ne sais pas où on va!!!
Pour le "cri" des hirondelles, comme toi, c'est un "chant" qui me remplit de bonheur!!!
Bonne fin de journée et à demain
Lovely flowers.
Your writing is so beautiful -- it describes your feelings so well. The photos were terrific that accompany your words. BUT spring means rain to us so I don't quite understand your words why it isn't spring because it rained.
Paulie: I don't live in the same kind of place than you.I'm much more in south.So, the climate is very different.
Here, usualy, as soon as winter is over, the heat arrives and it does not rain anymore almost until september; This year is quite UNusual for us!
Ici,les rosiers sont encore en boutons... Ces fleurs épanouies sur ciel bleu, quel délice...Il me semble en sentir le parfum légèrement sucré:)))
Bisous
During spring we have sunshine, then rain, then sunshine here. Quite nice really. Although lately we've had mostly sunshine, which is even nicer...
