Fairy Tales

Upon reading the Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern my mind was

already captured by a fairy tale.  In the story we meander through avenues between

black, white, and grey tents taking in surprises along the way.

 So just a few days ago as I had the opportunity to wander in this garden,

I was enchanted at the surprises I found along the way.

The beauty was astounding and I was wrapped in another fairy tale.

 A fairy tale of Bearded Iris.

 Welch Poppies

 Large acorns hidden by wee fairies.

 A place to sit by an evening fire and dream.

 Touches of color.

 A hidden avenue with a bench and birdhouse.

 The bird song touched my heart right here in this garden.

I was enchanted by the hummingbirds fluttering about.

 A hide away tucked in amongst the roses.

A friendly creature sitting in the bird bath of succulents.






And roses splashed across the palette in every color imaginable.
