Look at these,
aren’t they awesome,
so very cool,
such lovely colours.
Repurposed,
and so clever,
who would’ve thought
to do this, and so well.
So gay,
since spring has sprung,
there’re daffodils, tulips
and pretty pansies.
Aren’t we lucky to be in Amsterdam!

This is a shot of a wall. At the bottom, a metal tub sits, full of colorful flowers growing in it. On the wall, there are five shoes nailed and in three of them, flowers are stuck in them- all of them are yellow. There are two red shoes placed higher than the yellow ones and those are empty.
Written in response to Sadje‘s What Do You See #341 photo prompt.

Chris this is so delightful and inspiring- like a gust of spring breeze. Thanks for joining in.

It’s always better to repurpose than throw out. Id love to see more of that in the USA.

Indeed, in many places around the world who could do more repurposing.
