I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck.


This morning I picked three roses and from the single bush I have in a large pot near my lanai. I only wish the photo of these lovelies could convey the wonderful, delicious fragrance.

As a flower in the garden

Bending toward the sun,

Unfolds it's tiny petals

One, by one, by one...

So faith expands it's beauty

Until at last it grows

Into life's lasting flower...

The heart's fair perfect rose.
