We say we love flowers...

“We say we love flowers, yet we pluck them.
We say we love trees, yet we cut them down.
And people still wonder why some are afraid when told they are loved.”

Isn't she beautiful....?

I decided that if I could paint that flower in a huge scale,
you could not ignore its beauty.

I would give you all the world

This Flower Lyrics


Well this flower is my soul
But it's not half of what I owe
I should give you every rose that I ever grew
But take this one here for a start
And you can keep it in your heart
I have everything I need because of you

Well if my life was long enough
to pack up everything I love
I would do just that and give it all to you
But it's impossible to pay
All the things that you gave away
Si this flower I give will have to do

All the flowers growing wild
For ten thousand lonely miles
It's not near enough to give you what I should
So I will owe you for a while
Maybe longer than my life
I would give you all the world if I could

Five Signs of Springtime

What a pretty contrast

Magnolia buds everywhere

We call these pretty signs of spring "snow bells"

First Dandelions

Yesterday's nice weather tempted many people out of their houses - we too.

Strolling up and down the streets and the small picturesque lanes in Down Town, I found these five remarkable signs of springtime. If it stays this way from now on, the whole city will be a sea of blooming flowers and trees.

I'm so excited to have a seasonal change for once - which I never had in Key West's eternal summer time!

Enchanted Tulips

ENCHANTED TULIPS

TULIPS white and tulips red,
Sweeter than a violet bed!
Say, old Mother Bailey, say
Why your tulips look so gay,
Why they smell so sweet, and why
They bloom on when others die?

"By the pixies' magic power
Do my tulips always flower,
By the pixies' magic spell
Do they give so sweet a smell!
Tulips, tulips, red and white,
Fill the pixies with delight!

"Pixy women, pixy men,
Seek my tulips from the glen;
Midnight come, they may be heard
Singing sweet as any bird,
Singing their wee babes to rest
In the tulips they love best!"

Oh little blue Flower...

Oh little blue flower

Oh little blue flower
How do you grow?
Are you like me?
I think it so

From a seed
With food and light
You grew and grew
And slept at night

In the morning
I see you wake
Unfold your beauty
And stretch up high

You’re drenched with color
And scents of love
You reach up high
To the sun above

With outspread wings
You stand so proud
With poise and dignity
No need to hide

I am like you
And you’re like me
Oh little blue flower
So pure and free

(by Hannah Rippon)

Tiny Yellow Flower Power

Yellow Flowers

A flower has power, remember the sixties,
its all about love, just ask the pixies,
a flower is strength, and beauty too,
with such pure colour, fragrance and hue,
yet stands up to all the elements, just like you,
and a flower reminds me of love,
with grace and purity, like a dove,
a flower is power, to stand alone,
or be with many and still feel at home,
it sweetens any garden, whether old or new
and everyday God waters it with the morning dew,
so remember a flower is Gods way of smiling,
of telling you everything`s fine,
to let you know you are shining,
and that everything is in line.

And on the other side of the street...

Flowers everywhere - Come and enjoy this little piece of paradise!
