Hi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots. I am allways so happy your visit on my blog.
Have a nice week.
Aren't Death Camus beautiful and fragile - Let's name them something different! Or, maybe Death IS beautiful and fragile...Anyway, glad they inspired you.
ReplyDeleteTammie: Those are truly beautiful wild flowers.
ReplyDeleteLovely blossoms and wonderful message accompanying them. Thanks so much for your visit to Small Reflections.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
What a strange and spooky name for such a beautiful flower (Death Camas.) Are they poisonous?
ReplyDeleteThe chives blossom is beautiful.
Thanks for sharing your photos.
(okay, found it!!! )Your camera eye reflects the beauty in your soul. There is no separation, dearest Tammie.
ReplyDeleteLove you, Royal
so lovely and below sandy
ReplyDeleteSo true and beautiful. Great photos. The name of the second flower is intriguing.
ReplyDeleteNice! Have a great week!//Eva
ReplyDeletebeautiful blossoms - I never took the time to look at chives properly!
ReplyDeleteSo True. We are friends with All as long as we allow our neighbors to be, giving them the gift, to offer us the present that they truly are.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and words of inspiration to go with them.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots..
ReplyDeleteChive flowers can be added to your salad.
Mmountain death camas I am not recommending!!
All parts of this plant contain the poisonous alkaloid zygadenine, which some claim to be more potent than strychnine. Two bulbs, raw or cooked, can be fatal. Poisoning result from confusing these bulbs with those of edible species.

Anyway this is a wonderful post, love the pictures and the poem.

You are right Tammie. I was just commenting to someone that you cannot judge things by what they look like on the outside as it is the inside which matters most.
ReplyDeleteHi Tammie,
ReplyDeleteI love your poetic writing. I find your work very inspiring. The photos are very beautiful too!
Love,Jo.x:)
Great poem and matching photos,Tammie!
ReplyDeletebeautiful pics...play so well with the words...congrats on the POTD mention.

Please don't forget to post your creative works at Monday Poetry Train Revisited too!
What a beautiful post! Congrats on the Post of the Day Award!
ReplyDelete"The friend could look different than ever imagined" fits here so well. Who would have thought that the chives we sprinkle on our food could be so beautiful in the garden. Or a flower with "death" in its name could be so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteMountain death camas, now there's a name to conjure with.
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful, delicate blossoms! Wonderful captures.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful post. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI just stopped by from David McMahon's. Congratulations on your nomination.
Simply beautiful and they are lovely to see. Great scriblings too. Thanks for the visit Tammie.
ReplyDeleteGosh, but I’ve become such a world-weary creature! Just a few small years ago, I’d have been all over the mystery of this by the second line. This day, I didn’t get that excited, open-to-possibilities feeling until “the friend could be different than ever imagined.” I love that!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots as always. The words have special meaning for me. I've been restless lately, unable to settle to creative things I want to do. Your words remind me to be receptive, that inspiration wants to come and will if I relax and let it in. Thanks as always, Tammie!
ReplyDeleteJanice.
superb :)
