A Stroll in the Garden

“There came a time when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”
– Anais Nin

“What a desolate place would be a world without a flower! It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome. Are not flowers the stars of the earth, and are not our starts the flowers of the heaven.”
– A.J. Balfour

“If seeds in the black earth can turn into such beautiful roses, what might not the heart of man become in its
long journey toward the stars?”
– G.K. Chesterton

  I don’t think the last bee is particularly happy, Kathy. Looks like your spider has spun her trap and caught her breakfast, lunch and dinner all in one! 🙂

  I don’t have enough water for my garden to be gorgeous, but if I ever get a holding tank installed, then it will be much better. There is dead heading going on, and the heat of summer is going to dry things up a bit.
  
  When one takes close ups, one doesn’t see the whole picture. 🙂
