Friday Flower



Eutopia

There is a garden where lilies
And roses are side by side;
And all day between them in silence
The silken butterflies glide.

I may not enter the garden,
Though I know the road thereto;
And morn by morn to the gateway
I see the children go.

They bring back light on their faces;
But they cannot bring back to me
What the lilies say to the roses,
Or the songs of the butterflies be.

Francis Turner Palgrave


Today's Friday Flower is dedicated to a special friend who made me smile through the tears. These flowers are for you, Martha.

Hi! I subscribed your blog to my reader and I noticed that you have regular Friday Flower posts. That's neat!

Anyway I love flowers and I was thinking maybe I could share the many flower photos I have!!! Is Friday Flower something you are participating in or are you doing this on your own?
