~A Flower's Appeal...


~I don't know what it is about these tiny flower's
that is so captivating & appealing to me...



...~"Neither the flower nor it's
influence can be explained."
~Colette


~I hope you aren't growing tired of Daffodils,
& muscari...


~A flower's appeal is in it's contradictions~
So delicate in form, yet strong in fragrance,
So small in size, yet big in beauty, So short
in life, yet long on effect."
~Adabella Radiei
...So maybe that's what it is:)
Wishing everyone a Beautiful weekend!!
