Ring a ring of Roses

 Roses, who can resist the sweet smell and pure happiness they bring?

When I am grocery shopping I often like to come home with a bunch of flowers and is a good opportunity to get out the camera and take a few photos.

Alice with Roses ~ from an illustrated "Alice in Wonderland"

Mabel Lucie Attwell 1879-1964


I have always enjoyed reading this poem from Alice in Wonderland and it is true the phrase ;

the extra special powers that flowers can have on us.

There is something about roses, that makes me feel feminine and happy.

In a World of My Own

Cats and rabbits
Would reside in fancy little houses
And be dressed in shoes and hats and trousers
In a world of my own

All the flowers
Would have very extra special powers
They would sit and talk to me for hours
When I'm lonely in a world of my own

There'd be new birds
Lots of nice and friendly howdy-do birds
Everyone would have a dozen bluebirds
Within that world of my own

I could listen to a babbling brook
And hear a song that I could understand
I keep wishing it could be that way
Because my world would be a wonderland

My dear friends, have a lovely week

Hugs
