The promise of spring

What is that texture of white at ground level hidden in the blur?

Is it evidence of a faerie artisan practicing making the perfect floor lamp?

From the side the white petals hang from a tendril stem with “umbrella” above looking like a snipped blade of grass to shelter the bright light bulb.

From underneath the promise of spring opens to reveal 3 petals like faerie wings around a fresh green centre a depiction of new life.

Left:- I lay my iPhone on the ground to get this image of of 1 open snowdrop (3 white petals around a green flower centre) with a myriad of buds beginning to open against a grey sky and bare hedge (my long white cane and white walking stick are leaning against the hedge). I used the Camera Remote on my Apple Watch to actually take the photo.
Right:- Propping my iPhone against my key ring (a small Eeyore cuddly toy) I got a side view of the snowdrops against the bare wood of the mature thorn hedge.
I love how the closed white petals look like a light bulb on a lamp with the tip of a blade of grass as an umbrella above the tendril like stem (the umbrella is part of stem)
