The Butterfly
A butterfly lights beside us
like a sunbeam
and for a brief moment
its beauty and glory belongs to our world
but when it flies on again
and although we wish it could have stayed
we are so thankful to have seen it at all.

Hi, Sandy,
I love watching butterflies, and made it a point to plant lots Hibiscus and Lantana in the yard for them.
Luckily, it's warm enough here to see them nearly year-round!
Are those blubells? Yes it will be nice to have the weather to see butterflies again. Have you moved house yet?
beautiful blues....and pretty words too....reminds me of Rabindranath Tagore's beautiful quote, "The butterfly flitting from flower to flower ever remains mine, I lose, The one that is netted by me".
Oh! W.J. to have such a long butterfly season, lucky you. Hibiscus don't grow very well in my garden but I have several buddleia's and stinging nettles. lol
Yes, Dave, bluebells, but last year's photo I'm afraid, but their shoors are showing now. No news on the house front except a move to Wales is out could be Devon now.
Thank you Moi an dlove that Rabindranath quote.
Beautiful. This makes me wish for spring. Hello, Sandy.
Lovely! I'll have to see if I can plant bluebells.
Sandy, are my emails getting through?
Hello Stephen and pleased you liked the post. Today spring came early here, well, the sun was shining and the garden was filled with birdsong.... maybe soon the butterflies will be back. :-)
Plant them among trees Janet - we'll have you walking in an English country garden yet. lol
Mails = working on it. :-)
I love this blog thanks!
~hugs~
Sandy, are you getting my emails?
