Our World!!

In my garden, after a rainfall, you can faintly, yes, hear the
      breaking of new blooms.                                                             
                                                          - Truman Capote
Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under
    trees on a summer's day, listening to the murmur of the water,
    or watching the clouds float across the sky is by no means
    a waste of time.  
                                                                                     - J. Lubbuck
Join us and celebrate the beauty of our world -- regardless of the season!!  Yes, I know, I obviously prefer Spring!!!

  4. The flowers are beautiful! It's nice to be reminded that they still exist. The trees and bushes are bare and the ground is covered with snow here.

    Have a great day Sylvia!

  5. Oh what I would do for a blade of grass to lie on ... you got it right, Sylvia, it just isn't always possible to do it the way you would like to. My rest on a day like today is cuddled up in a nice warm fleece throw with a good book ... and that isn't a waste of time either :)Stay warm, Sylvia ...
