I seem to have loved you in numberless forms,
numberless times …
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
My spellbound heart has made and remade the necklace
of songs,
That you take as a gift; wear round your neck in your
many forms,
In life after life, in age after age, forever.
After a seemingly unshake-offable buggy thing ...
... and being
bed bound for nearly two weeks
I seem to be on the mend and getting back to some sort of
normality.
The garden has bloomed profusely in my absence
It is absolutely enchanting right now.
Lush and green ...
... yes, we have had sun.
Buzzing with insects ...
... and rich in birdsong
An utter joy to be in.
Being a hopeless romantic ...
... soppily sentimental ...
... regularly moved by a few simple words ...
... a gentle touch ...
... a heart shaped stone ...
... random collections that
mean everything to one person ...
... and nothing to another.
I love absolutely anything to do with roses ...
... you sort of get the
picture ...
I just love a little soppiness.
Remember these?
Miniature vintage cylinder
boxes holding the tiniest wax matches?
… made into teeny keepsakes
for someone special.
Covered with snippets
of old letters and ephemera.
Holding within a message.
… and topped with
vintage letters ...
... is an embroidered
message.
Rolled snugly inside
the box.
Waiting to be unveiled
By that special
someone

Your garden is looking beautiful.All of a sudden everything is lush, green and flowering isnt it? Amazing what a bit of sun does.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love your makes too.
The garden and hedgerows are amazing shades of green right now - not as much colour at the moment - one benefit of the rain I suppose.
DeleteThat's my sort of garden too... abundant!!
ReplyDeleteLoving your little vintage message rolls too... Cx
I call it a wildlife garden - lots of wild and abundant areas for the beneficial beasties!
