After a spell of wintry chill, the sun’s warmth is back. The tulips are blooming profusely. Still under the spell of my own version of tulipomania, I’m even enthralled by green.

The late afternoon rays stream in through dirty windows, then drop behind the trees and hillside, leaving behind a glowing golden sky.
