TODAY'S FLOWERS - Changes


Leave home for four days to enjoy the warmth to the desert
return to transformations at home

amazing what a few drops of rain will do


my chrysanthemum thinks it is Mothers' Day already

the paddock below my garden shows the faintest 
touch of green and the Wild Wood
is changing into it's golden mantle


the stocks that have given me joy all summer
are more vibrant and have embraced a self seeded
ruby chard in their midst


snapdragons have been joined by a lonely broad bean 
and carpet of parsley

I tend to leave thing where God plants them
they grow much better there and save me the trouble
of getting them established elsewhere


While the other half of the world is bursting into spring,
I am thoroughly enjoying being in the gentle season of
of autumn, cooler temperatures, rain and comfort food.

MY WORLD ~ Winter Wonders


At last the days are getting just a little bit longer and instantly
the almond blossoms awaken to give us hope of spring to come.


Their little stars light up my world.


Just because of the unusual moisture in the soil, the roses
have burst into bloom


and on a sunny day, the bees brave the temperature to
seek a drop of fresh nectar.

TODAY'S FLOWERS ~ Reminiscing of Glenbarr Station

Still wallowing in fond memories of the 'Enfoldments' Retreat.

Snapdragons at the dining hall door

and a big bush of these tiny flowers at our cottage door.
Sorry I can't tell you their name at present, I'm having a
senior's moment. This afternoon I had misplaced the name
of Lantana, now, when I want this one, I get Lantana instead....

A fair exchange is no robbery I suppose.

*
This old plum tree had been teasing us all week and just on the
last day it decided to treat us to some blossom on one branch.

Enlarge for a closer look if you wish.
