Flowers

I love love love flowers.  I believe they are a tonic from God.  And these I got for free from Woolies due to the scanning policy.  Nice.

And because I can't paint, I am hoping to persuade my busy friend Shelley for a commission.  Then I will have more flowers!

  1. Gorgeous colours....Whenever I see flowers (that aren't mine!) It reminds me of this poem by Wendy Cope:

    Flowers

    Some men never think of it.
    You did. You’d come along
    And say you’d nearly brought me flowers
    But something had gone wrong.

    The shop was closed. Or you had doubts —
    The sort that minds like ours
    Dream up incessantly. You thought
    I might not want your flowers.

    It made me smile and hug you then.
    Now I can only smile.
    But, look, the flowers you nearly brought
    Have lasted all this while.

    1. Oh, I love the poem! I haven't read poetry in such a long time (unless you count Dr Seuss!). Poetry is as giving as flowers :-)

Hey thanks for popping by! I read all your comments and really try and get to your blog too. Despite my good intentions, I don't always reply to each message but I am very grateful for the time you take in sharing your thoughts with me. Word verification is back up because I am getting spammed big time. So thanks for taking that extra step in commenting. Blessings, Fi xxxxx
