The Rough Burr-thistle, Spreading Wide Amang The Bearded Bear,I Turnd The Weeder-clips Aside, An Spard
The rough burr-thistle, spreading wide Amang the bearded bear, I turn’d the weeder-clips aside, An’ spar’d the symbol dear: No nation, no station, My envy e’er could raise; A Scot still, but blot still, I knew nae higher praise. -Robert Burns from Epistle to Mrs. Scott of Wauchope House. Aye, Mr Burns, the thistle is quite the thing of beauty…..hoping your day is full of beauty as well…..Joyeux Vendredi, mes amis!

Some distance away is an azalea bush which stuns me with its stately beauty. This is pristine natural beauty. it is irrepressible, seeks no reward, and is without goal, a beauty derived neither from symbolism nor metaphor and needing neither analogies nor associations. Gao Xingjian Yeah, that…..the Master Artist has once again blown me away with the beauty & intricacies in His creation…..these just started blooming in our garden….needs no filter, no enhancement….it’s perfect the way it is…just. like. that……..rain or shine, take the time to marvel today…I can guarantee, you’ll be glad you did….Joyeux Vendredi, mes amis!

this life has been a landscape of pain

“Even in the smallest and humblest garden, a sturdy hydrangea at once proclaims the place as the abode of a real gardener rather than a mere purchaser of plants to cover the landscape.” —Washington Park Arboretum Bulletin, 2006. Okay, I’m not a gardener, I just appreciate those that do:-) & the growers that supply the lovely blooms I work with. Thank you! The creamy white hydrangeas I was working with the other day were so luscious, they deserved a close up…..Bon Lundi, mes amis!
People from a planet without flowers would think we must be mad with joy the whole time to have such things about us. Iris Murdoch. Riotous red ruffled blooms bursting from the corner of my garden….yes dahling, the azaleas have arrived, and aren’t they simply mahvelous? ;-) Lol. Bon Jeudi, mes amis!
