The wildflowers here are doing this same dance. The other day I heard a mother tell her child, "If everyone picked just one flower, there wouldn't be any left!" Lol! Enjoy your Sunday!

Not really, Robin. In the dry season, such greenery spaces can be very scorched and parched dry.

Sadly, in the concrete jungle, that the natives call, Toronto, native wildflowers are sacred and far between, except, in the few wild spaces, not manicured, by the local parks and rec crews.

Magical Mystical Teacher said...

Oh, a haiku to celebrate spring and new life! Yes!

Susan said...

No greenscaping can prevent the wild earth from reaching out to us! At least I hope not. Love this.

Susan Anderson said...

I wish I could post a picture of the wildflowers I saw yesterday. Love them!

How one loves to be able to sustain oneself. It is a measure of honesty and confidence in dealing with minor difficulties

Lovely, Gillena.I find it hard to resist wildflowers, but only pick a few, and never the roots.

Adelaide

Gillena Cox said...

The roots are somtimes so stubborn, you might as well only get the flowers
