If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.
Buddha |
Love is the answer, and you know that for sure; Love is a flower, you've got to let it grow.
John Lennon |
You're only here for a short visit. Don't hurry, don't worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.
Walter Hagen |
One of the most attractive things about the flowers is their beautiful reserve.
Henry David Thoreau |
I said to the almond tree, ''Friend, speak to me of God,'' and the almond tree blossomed.
Nikos Kazantzakis |
Everything is blooming most recklessly; if it were voices instead of colors, there would be an unbelievable shrieking into the heart of the night.
Rainer Maria Rilke, |
In the spring, at the end of the day, you should smell like dirt.
Margaret Atwood |
Spring has returned. The Earth is like a child that knows poems.
Rainer Maria Rilke |
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden.

I just love how the focus into the center of the flower in each of these shots ties them all together. The colors and textures in #2 are just exquisite.

Very beautiful set, splendid macro. The words have touched me deeply, my mother died last month, I covered her coffin with spring flowers ... "If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden" Claudia Ghandi. Thank you for this beautiful post

her great word, look! -, meant : look at the hairy caterpillar, similar to a small golden bear ! look at the first growth of the bean, the cotyledon which is raising on the head a small hat of dry ground, look at the wasp which is cuting, with its mandibles like shears, a part of raw meat ; look at the color of the sky at sunset, which is announcing big wind and tempest ; that the big wind of tomorrow matters if we admired this current oven ! look, fast, the button of the black iris is blooming ! if you don't hurry, it will go faster than you ! - COLETTE (about her mother, Sido )
