The dandelions and buttercups
gild all the lawn; the drowsy bee
stumbles among the clover tops,
and summer sweetens all to me.

Couldn't find any dandelions or buttercups, so this'll have to do.

Zen and The Art of Gardening

Oh, I love this post. Les, you do the most amazing things on your blog! What a great picture, what a beautiful poem, what a sense of summer you have captured.
I wish I could garden, but at least I can enjoy an effective one!
Once I asked my husband the best kind of plant to keep on my desk at school and he said, "Silk."
Which I refuse to buy.
Awww, you're too kind. It's been fun (and challenging - thanks to Blogger!) putting this new blog together.
Maybe your hubby should provide a bouquet of fresh flowers for your desk once a week. Even a single bloom in a bud vase would be cheery. I have to admit I have a few silk flowers here and there in my house. ;)
Beautiful picture!
I like the idea of a few roses from my husband! Actually, we've been buying huge bunches of eucalyptus at the Farmer's Market and I love them. They smell so great. Maybe they would work in my classroom. If not, roses for a fallback.
