The Calla Lily

 
The Calla Lily

The flow and movement of this graceful flower does enchant.
The curves sway to the music and dance.
It shines in the sunlight capturing my attention.
The romance of it takes my breath away.
The bridal veil it reminds me.
While secrets it enfolds.
It is present in my garden.
It is carried down the garden path.
Purity surrounds and tickles my heart with JOY.
Walk with me and we will discover secrets yet untold.
Laugh with me in bold DELIGHT and our day will sing in pleasure.
How do I love this simple flower, this calla lily so true.
It is truly in just NOTICING God's design for me and you.

May you notice what you notice each and every day!

Stunning photo of a beautifully elegant flower. I never used to like calla lilies, but in the past few years, I am enjoying them more.

What a gorgeous flower! I love the Calla Lily tea sandwiches that mimic it. Calla lilies remind me a bridal bouquets. Your garden must be beautiful with these flowers growing in it.

I love calla lilies! I'd like to have them in every color in my garden - and I might do that one of these days. This is a beautiful tribute to a graceful, beautiful flower.
