reputed to be a right \'un

she took the isle of wight on

Michael,
Romp worthy indeed...
your limerick...of course🤣
The chuckle of the day🤣

I tried to translate it to my mom!
That was hilarious!
She recognized the
Campanula Carpatica!
She exclaimed,
“Oh, le belle campanelle!”
(Oh, the beautiful little bells!)

She and my dad were the best gardeners in our family! She took care of the flowers and my dad took care of the vegetables! They lived part of their lives on a farm!

Thank you for the share!

She needs a haircut to look her best ........... Campanula carpatica blue!!! One of the only full garden Latin names I have memorized because it sounds like a song!

There was a Young Lady from BATH
who was always game for a LAFF
Daily she grooms
In the Famous Pump Rooms
But I\'ve never seen Her
in her in her BAFF

Thanks MIKE for sharing another \"L\"
a smile for a Saturday Morning !
Angela and romping on SCYPE !
Yours BRIAN & ANGELA

Thanks MIKE ~ as we both know ~ noting in this life is permanent and everything fades and dies and is forgotten like the rest ! Even the BEAUTIFUL and LOVELY like the Snap Dragon and of course Princess Diana 20 years ago as we have been reminded recently ! I\'m a similar age to William & Harry so I am empathetic with them and for them ~ Yours BRIAN

Michael,
What a beautiful Antirrhinum!
Love the colors that nature used to paint it. Super!

I’m so happy that you tell us the botanical names of the flowers you post! I would have to spent a lot of time researching the ones whose name I don’t know...such as this one!

Sadly, the poem reminds me of my parents...one is gone and the other slowly going! Such is life!
The bright side...
I’m grateful she is living a long life!

Quite a depth to this moving write Michael - - and to counterbalance the poignant mood such a glorious shade of apricot-pink on that lovely self-seed.

PERCEPTION
SLR said:

Trump is a horrific joke come true. He was featured in cartoons decades ago as president! As a joke! I CANNOT believe they made that moron the president! He\'s practically illiterate. Have you listened to him speak when he\'s not quoting a speech he\'s memorized that someone else wrote?! America used to be great in several ways but there have been several prominent people admit that we\'ve lost a lot of what made it great. It\'s sad to think that with all the advancements we have made, this is the mess that we are leaving our children. Btw, the natives were horrendously treated and many still are. Although the government, has over time, given them certain rights and benefits to attempt to make up for stealing so much from them in the past. (Too little, too late if you ask me) I have native great grandparents and some of the stories I\'ve heard are truly horrific. You\'ve really started something this time Michael!! Lots of comments and opinions. Well, you\'ve gotten us all thinking!

THE BOATYARD
SLR said:

I\'ve always admired the craftsmanship that goes into each boat. This is a wonderfully descriptive piece. The flowers are beautiful and exotic looking. We don\'t have those here. I usually screenshot your work (and a few of the flowers) to read (and look at) whenever I want (they\'re saved in my pics) I\'ve saved both of these! Another great post! I always make a point of checking your posts whenever I can get to MPS. Thank you for sharing your vision.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ Wonderful tribute to the Boat Builders. I have watched ~ small and large craft being created and there is no more mesmerising journey \"From LOG to LAUNCH\" ! Love the NIGELLAS ~ almost as BEAUTIFUL as Nigella Lawson the Kitchen Goddess! Yours BRIAN

Lorna said:

This is such a wonderful description you could fool us into thinking it was you building the boat. Well as a craftsman you probably took it all in by osmosis.
What do you do with the seeds?

Laura🌻 said:

Michael,
An engaging read!
I can almost hear his humming!

Beautiful pic of the Nigella.
Do you actually use the seeds?

( Before I read the poem, I read the author comments! I thought you were talking about Nigella Lawson. Silly me...or better yet...dopey me!)

I enjoyed the whole reading experience with your write and visual!
Thank you for sharing, Maestro!

Michael,
Perfect abstract for a Dream sequence...the ones we want to go back to sleep again and continue the Dream! (Not the nightmarish ones as Lorna said)
I enjoyed the read!
Great work, Maestro!
