Cottage Garden...

With a few flowers in my garden, half a dozen pictures and some books, I live without envy.
Lope de Vega

Landscape...

When you go out there, you don't get away from it all; you get back to it all. You come home to what's important, you come home to yourself.
Peter Dombrovskis

Play of the Light...

The daisy's for simplicity and unaffected air.

Alphabet Flags...

My alphabet starts with this letter called yuzz. It is the letter I use to spell yuzz a ma tuzz. You'll be sort of surprised what there is to be found once you go beyond Z and start poking around.

The Pelican...

A wonderful bird is the Pelican.
His beak can hold more than his belly can.
He can hold in his beak
Enough food for a week!
But I'll be darned if I know how the hellican!

Snow...

They say that every snowflake is different. If that were true how could the world go on? How could we ever get up off our knees? How could we ever recover from the wonder of it?

Beach: Study in Black & White...

Sunset...

Earth and moon and sun and stars,

Planets and comets with tails blazing,

All are there forever falling,

Falling lovely and amazing.

Seed Pod...

Nature's first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down today.
Nothing gold can stay.

Robert Frost.
