Delights of the Heart ~
Seeking Beauty In Everyday Life

Reach
Reach for the sky
Let nothing stop you
Bloom and grow in the sunshine
My hollyhock is 12 feet tall
It is reaching
It has problems,
but still keeps growing
Reach no matter what

Many things bring great delight to me: tea, gardens, flowers, outdoors, food, and friends that cross my path. These all make my heart sing with small chuckles, giggles, laughter, and tears. It is my desire to seek beauty all around me.

If I had gorgeous hollyhocks like these I would not need ice cream!
It's obvious to me.

I love how the blue sky frames this!
Ohhhh, these flowers always remind me of my nana and the illustrated English childrens books my mom used to read to us.
Your hollyhock is gorgeous! I can't believe how tall it is! What have you been feeding it?
Wonderful sentiment. Thank you.
Wow...that is amazing! I love love Hollyhocks...such an old fashion flower!
Happy weekend my friend. xoxo
Oh, my hollyhocks never bloomed in the Georgia heat this year, so I am especially happy to see yours!
