Monday's Quotes

 
 
 
 
Nobody sees a flower,
really it is so small we haven't time,
and to see takes time,
like to have a friend takes time

~Georgia O'Keefe

This is one of my favorite quotes.

Oh, that's long been one of my fave quotes too! Must take time to smell and SEE the roses. LOVELY flowers--look at all the zinnias! Is that a flower farm, Marilyn? Happy Day ((HUGS))

Joy said...

Great quote, and I love the pictures of flowers, especially the rows of zinnias! I had rows of zinnias one time, in a garden at a former home, and this is a fond reminder of that happy summer.

The anirrhinums in our front garden are just beginning to flower and add a multi-coloured look to the raised bed.

What a lovely cutting garden! I would enjoy walking through those fields!

Don't we take these little masterpieces for granted.
Every now and then we need to slow down and appreciate the beauty that nature has given us.
Each flower is a living work of art.
The antirrhinums are one of my faves too.

A sweet poem - I'm not familiar with Georgia O'Keefe so I'll check her out.
