flowers fleurs

That one, who understood that the flowers,
were the most beautiful thing in the world, 
gather before roses, orchids
This one, understood everything, and loved.

The flowers and their heavenly perfumes,
Make him forget sorrows of love,
Forget hours spent in front of the sciences,
Flowers make you forget the people in a hurry,

This one has understood everything that has fooled him,
What can do without easy pleasures,
The loves of youth are illusions,
Flowers are the most beautiful thing in the world.


Celui là, qui a compris que les fleurs,
étaient la plus belle chose au monde, 
recueillez vous devant les roses, les orchidées
Celui là, a tout compris, et s’est aimé.

Les fleurs et leurs parfums célestes,
Lui font oublier des chagrins d’amour,
Des heures passées devant les sciences,
Elles vous font oublier les gens pressés,

Celui là a tout compris qui a compris cela,
Il peut se passer des plaisirs faciles,
Les amours de jeunesse sont illusions,
Les fleurs sont la plus belle chose au monde.

Like your Les fleurs Yann. Flowers are meant for various purposes, including expressions, sentiments, and messages. Each flower has its own symbolism. e.g. a sunflower represents faith, adoration, loyalty, optimism, and silent love.--def Or just to admire. I hope you have a lovely garden to enjoy them. Wishing you well!

I love to look out the kitchen window and see my flowers begin to come alive. I enjoy the beauty even though it is not a really nice garden anymore. Thanks for sharing this one with us. Last night I listened to the whip-poor-will sing his heart out and this morning when planting some roots to make new peonies, I heard the doves singing. Sara K

Yes, indeed! My daughter gave me a bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day, last Sunday. They are quite the pick-me-up! It is rare for me to have a vase of flowers. I am enjoying them immensely! Reminds me too of her visit. She gets anxious when she drives so it was so nice. God bless you. Enjoy the roses and orchids!
