Italian wildflowers for a change
extreme beauty just the same
mia sorella heard the fairies call
she looked and spied wee orchids tall
gracefully standing
amongst forest grass
uplifting spirits as we passed

How beautiful, they look like little alien people, or flopsy eared bunnies if you look from an angle.
ReplyDeleteYour flower photographs are truly uplifting!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers. The distinctive colors of them are very noice.
ReplyDeleteThey have uplifted my spirits too. Beautiful poetry and pictures Tammie. I see you are enjoying beautiful Italy :)
ReplyDeleteWild Orchids found outside the tropics are always a surprise and joy. I like your little verse with a little italian, cute.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful wild orchids. The color is gorgeous! What a pretty sight to see.
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how orchids seem to send out naturally exotic and mysterious vibes... I visited a garden full of orchids once, and it was heaven. My favorite would be the Moon Orchid, no doubt.
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are mesmerizing, Tammie. oxx
Super gorgeous..very beautiful..very special!!

Orchids are part of my roots. Mum and Dad used to grow them. Some times, we go into he jungles of Borneo to look for wild ones.
ReplyDeleteI never had any luck growing these but you seem to have lots of it. Nice shots too.
ReplyDeleteI am trying to get some favorite family recipes from my favorite bloggers. I even started a new blog—Fat Lady Recipes—to hold them. I have received some submissions with more promised. A photo of your dish is nice but not required. A photo of yourself is required as well as your real name. Sometimes I can use your profile photo if it is not an icon.
The Fat Lady Recipes blog should be getting some magazine coverage soon but I am not at liberty to talk about just yet.
You don't have to be fat to share recipes.

ReplyDeleteHi Tammie, I can't believe you're in Italy! Now I'm looking at those Italian orchids and thinking how I'd gasp to find them growing wild. You have taken your Nature eyes with you - now uplifting us from across the globe.

Are you in Italy? We are in London visiting our daughter and family.
In 2006 we spent a lovely week in Tuscany; one night in Levanto which is the doorway to the Cinque Terre and five nights in Bettolle which is southeast of Siena and Florence.

How perfectly splendid! Sending love to you!
ReplyDeleteEach flower is a mysterious universe. Gorgeous.

That green color just pops-out of the screen.
ReplyDeleteFun to look at it - Makes you wish you could also smell those flowers.
Nicely done!
Dear Tammie, x
ReplyDeleteIt is great to see that you have been inspired by the nature of Italy. These orchids are incredible. The wonderful green background makes the flowers look really vibrant and alive. I think the second flower is called a Bee orchid. My sister introduced me to them around my birthday. They flower in late June to July and can also be found in the fields of England!
I hope you had a lovely holiday and you have many more photos to show us of your travels!:-)
Blessings and love,
Jo.x
