Gentle Roses


If anyone  needed proof  of a Creator, all I'd do is show him or her a rose.

The incredible beauty of roses astounds. 

Most flowers are beautiful, I think, but there's something extra special about roses.


They are intricate and exquisite yet simple and blissfully fragrant.


Oh my goodness, whenever I see roses, they seem to melt my heart.

Two of the roses in this photo were taken at a roadside garden stand in Williamsburg, Massachusetts.

I will post more photos of this mini-trip in coming days so if you like to look at flower photos, come on back.

In the meantime, have a lovely Sunday, filled with wonder and loveliness.

DO YOU LIKE ROSES?

I do love roses and always had rose gardens planted in the garden. The last 5 years, I have to laugh, because my Kelly once told me of all the flowers, she never liked roses and would prefer hydrangeas or a simple daisy!

I have a yellow rose bush in my backyard that is just beautiful when it is in bloom. I also have mini rose bushes in yellow, pink and red. I love roses!

What a bad friend I am - I was going to check this out sooner. Sorry - one thing led to another and I just forgot.

I love all flowers - wish I was a better gardener - I think God is giving us a glimpse into Heaven.

Roses are my favorite flowers. You are right, there is something extra special about them.

I have 2 mini roses that made it thru the winter! They seem to be growing rapidly; cant' wait to see the blossoms. So much to look forward to in the spring garden!
