The legend or romance of old,

From whence it came.  ~ O. Herford

10 - Copy(click to enlarge)

Legend has it when Adam was giving names to all the plants in the Garden of Eden, he told them to be careful not to forget their names.

One little blue flower had to go back to ask what name had been given to him. 

It was then when Adam told him, “This day forward your name will be the Forget-not.”

My favorite resemblance of the little blue flower comes from the American poet Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

He called the stars, “the forget-me-not’s of the Angels". 

I cannot think of a better comparison for them.

Angels in my Garden - Freebie

I am always welcoming the Angels…where ever I am.  I know they are always around me.  I have heard if you are aware of them and want them around, they will always gather.

Here is my newest graphic reminding us the Angels do gather where ever we are. Especially in the "Rose Garden".

Choose your favorite color.
Enjoy!

Beneath the Rose Arbor


Today let us relax and wander under the rose arbor. 
Beneath the fragrant arches of vivid colors of pink and red.  Where the bees seem to be intoxicated by the sweet smell of the roses.  We find peace.


“To be overcome by the fragrance of flowers is a delectable form of defeat.” - B. Nichols

Life in Pink



ryu     
La Vie En Rose
Hold me close and hold me fast,
The magic spell you cast;
This is La vie en rose.
When you kiss me heaven sighs,

And tho I close my eyes,
I see La vie en rose.

When you press me to your heart,
I’m in a world apart;
A world where roses bloom,
And when you speak...
angels sing from above.
Everyday words seem...
to turn into love songs.
Give your heart and soul to me,
And life will always be.
            -Édith Piaf
