"Autumn, the year's last, loveliest smile.” ~ William Cullen Bryant

Rose love

I got bunches of roses from my DH for our anniversary and couldn't stop of taking these velvety. Truly splendid!

“LIFE is a mosaic of pleasure and pain - grief is an interval between two moments of joy. Peace is the interlude between two wars. You have no rose without a thorn; the diligent picker will avoid the pricks and gather the flower. There is no bee without the sting; cleverness consists in gathering the honey nevertheless.”

“A rose is a rose is a rose”

“A single rose can be my garden...a single friend, my world.” ~ Leo F. Buscaglia
