Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. ~Lao Tzu~
Timeless Rose I remember thee,
Velvet soft petals,
In folds so gently.
Ever swirling inward bound,
Lightly touching,
Without a sound.
Wrapping curving in endless ways,
Ever soothing,
Through all my days.
Timeless Rose as last light goes,
Days are numbered,
Yet no one knows.
Stay a while for now you see,
Forever loving,
Through Eternity.
~ Rachel Cohen ~
I guess I’m switching gears so to speak from auto photos, back to nature! 🙂 I’m in the middle of processing wayyyy to many photos from the auto show, so I thought I’d bring us back to nature tonight. To a little bright and lively color!
An orange and creamy white Amaryllis in full bloom. This is one of many images from a conservatory that was featuring many types of Amaryllis at the time. These are bulb flowers, and make a great showing during the winter here. Inside of course! 😉
Just think, it probably won’t be too many more months till we can all get outside again, and drink in the beauty of the earth, and all it has to offer! 🙂
For now though, we shall be satisfied with whatever we can find of beauty, or interest and In truth all we need to do is look, and we’ll find something wonderful that grabs our attention and then we can’t resist the urge to get out the camera, and have some fun!!
I’m sure I’m not alone in that sentiment! 🙂
Well, I thought we may need a bit of sunshine today, left over from last summer’s flowers! I don’t know about your location, but it’s cold and rainy here, and has been cloudy for a good long while!
Last summer the flowers in our local botanical garden weren’t as abundant as usual because of the severe drought, but despite that, some hearty survivors gave a good show!
This is some type of sunflower. These seem to range in color from reds to yellows. With brown, mahogany or dark purple centers, and can tolerate dry soil, and drought! Thankfully!!
I hope this brightens your day if you too are having a dark and rainy day! 🙂
