Happy Flower Friday!
Robin shared her rose that she described as "OUT OF TOWN." 😂 It's a stunner and a showstopper!
Robin also shared her favorite poem about autumn. It is by Emily Dickinson:
The morns are meeker than they were -
The nuts are getting brown -
The berry’s cheek is plumper -
The rose is out of town.
The maple wears a gayer scarf -
The field a scarlet gown -
Lest I sh'd be old-fashioned
I’ll put a trinket on.
Sue shared her Colchicum aka autumn crocus:
Over in my garden, I'm enjoying Beauty Berry Bush. Barb S. gave me a small baby bush years ago and it has taken off. I love this bush and the gorgeous berries on it. The birds will eat the berries through the winter!
We had rain yesterday and it is still cloudy outside but I walked by my window and was struck by a glimmer of light I saw above my neighbor's roof.
There is always one day in October when the trees seem to glow with autumn light and the world looks amazing. I suspect once we get some more sunlight, today will be that day:
I would love to get some of the Beauty Berry, but evidently deer love it and I have enough problems with them and my bird feeders as it is!
ReplyDeleteWow! That's quite a view of the golden trees.
