Sleepy Farewells


  
Do you ever go into your garden after a frost has taken the bloom off everything in it?  Do you murmur a little thank you to all your flowers, trees and shrubs, not to mention the odd bumblebee who might be making its rounds one last time? 


To offer a grateful whisper to them for having made your little corner of the world a beautiful place...


I almost imagine that they offer sleepy nods in response as they nestle in for a well-deserved rest until Spring.



I took the above photos a couple of weeks ago...before the snow arrived...and forgot to post.




All things that are beautiful
~ think on these things ~
and give thanks!



Wishing you a beautiful day,
Brenda

  2. You can still get some beautiful photos even after a frosty night. I like to take a walk and discover what color has survived and what might make an interesting photo.

  3. Dear Brenda,

    It's so nice to know that someone else talks to their yard! :) I always miss the leaves and flowers, but you are right that they deserve a rest. Plus, the snow is beautiful, too, in its place.

    Thank you for the reminder to treasure this time of year.

    Love,
