Summer Flowers

Flower gardens in my neighborhood in full bloom Lovely flowers freshened by the summer rain Daisies, asters, hot poker with their scarlet plume Flower gardens in my neighborhood in full bloom All equally lovely in a vase in my sitting room It is wonderful to have cut flowers once again Flower gardens in my neighborhood in full bloom Lovely flowers freshened by the summer rain.

We are on the same track today... the one that leads straight to the flowers.. Excellent writing. Ann

Yesterday was the perfect day for gardening here. I no longer have the space or agility to raise the large flower garden I used to have, but I still love and appreciate others' flower gardens. Thanks, Ann.

Nothing more beautiful than colourful flowers on display in a garden in summertime. Love sitting out and relaxing watching butterfly's and bee's going about their business. Tom

Me too, Tom. I have a small front porch and side porch which I enjoy a lot. This is my favorite time of the year. Today was cloudy, gray, and rainy, though, so I opted for indoors.
