Garden Quotes 2019

These are the things I prize
And hold of dearest worth:
Light of the sapphire skies,
Peace of the silent hills,
Shelter of the forest, comfort of the grass,
Music of the birds, murmur of little rills,
Shadows of clouds that swiftly pass,
And, after showers,
The smell of flowers
And of the good brown earth -
And best of all, along the way, friendship and mirth.
~Henry Van Dyke
And for me, daffodils in springtime!

The daffodils are blooming with color, Marilyn. Love the quote a lot. If only we all took this much pleasure in nature. The peace that it brings us. : )

Have a wonderful first week of March.

I couldn't agree more, Marilyn. I can't wait till our daffs begin to bloom. If it gets over 14, maybe they will. eventually.

I totally agree, the daffodils are just starting to bloom, so uplifting to see.

Soooo LOVELY! I'll take it all... I'm greedy, I guess! ;) How happy to see all these daffs. We actually have a few snowdrops bravely spiraling upwards... So maybe spring may come yet?! Happy Week, Marilyn ((HUGS))
