A hope for peace and harmony
Each morning, the beauty of the sky awaits us
Unasked, the flowers turn their faces up
With all their shy beauty
Flamboyance
And delicacy
Each year they awaken, to delight
Peeping out of their flowerpots
Or maybe we’ve brought some inside, to enjoy
Before the sun sets
With, maybe, just a hint of rain
Before the colour drains from our world
It is so simple, isn’t it? So beautiful.
My wish for you at Easter is peace and love, with not too many raindrops. (and certainly no more snow for my Stateside friends!)
I almost forgot to link to Cate at Show My Face. Even on Easter Saturday you can still share your six words. Happy Easter!

The 6th flower shot down, Jo. It looks white to me, but now i see that the leaves are wrong for a Gardenia. 🙂

Such beautiful photos. They certainly suggest a sense of tranquillity and peace – a wish I always have for our world filled with so much anger and restlessness.

This restless person smiled at your comment, Colline 🙂 I’m always more peaceful when the sun shines. Shame it doesn’t seem to affect everyone that way. Have a lovely time with your family.
