The fattest and most scrumptious of all flowers, a rare fusion of fluff and majesty, the peony is now coming into bloom. – Henry Mitchell, American Garden writer “Earthman”, 1924-1963

These may not be my best photos of flowers, but it one of my favourite flowers and they are in bloom right now! And what better way to appreciate them than to pass the time admiring them, both through a lens and with the naked eye. They’ve always reminded me of ball gowns, and what girly-girl doesn’t love an over-the-top sparkly, ruffled confection?

Nature invites us to experience it with all of our senses, including our sense of touch. Silky and smooth, hard and rough, hot or cold, fluffy, furry or fuzzy. Well, maybe not everything should be touched – poison ivy and bumblebees, for example. Even isolated at home, there are wonders in nature to be savoured, if you take the time to look for them.

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn. – Hal Borland

moss

Moss is popular for her unusual beauty, but what distinguishes her is that she is accessible and down to earth. – Rita Clifton

bark

Green moss shines there with ice encased; The long grass bends its spear-like form; And lovely is the silvery scene When faint the sun-beams smile.    –Robert Southey

This is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks, Bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight, stand like druids of eld, with voices sad and prophetic. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

This is my post for Cee’s interesting challenge this week:  Cee Neuner’s Fun Foto Challenge: Anything with a “k” in it.

Monday was Family Day. It was clear and cold, but I had to make a quick stop at the park on the way out of town after visiting my family.

First I took photos of the FLOCK.

Then I took photos of the STACK.

As well as photos of the PARK.

Finally, I took photos of the WORKERS on the train TRACK.
