SHOWERS AND FLOWERS IN GEWELS' GARDEN



My pansies love this gray,cold and dreary weather....

...But my peonies don't. One bloom has managed to survive the storms.


My trusty and heady scented lilac

And how happy was I when I spotted my Scotch broom blooming. The scent is heaven!


Observe this dew-drenched rose of Tyrian gardens
A rose today. But you will ask in vain
Tomorrow what it is; and yesterday
It was the dust, the sunshine, and the rains.
- Christina Rosetti
