This is Beautiful Deb - I hope you have some Spring weather soon! Jeff #7270336Vitor Dias March 11, 2009
So lovely Deb.God chose among the flowers
so much for the rose represented beauty,
white, red and tarnished
all with incomparable charm.
God gave him her soft perfume
the softness of the petals,
the serenity of the dew,
incurvation to stem
and the strength of thorns.
even having the spines
as their ultimate protection
not ceased to be a sensitive flower
and perennial ...
God made the roses for the chicks
took women to the roses,
all with different beauty
invasive and love,
dance in the wind
called it the woman
and presented with a sheet of life
a morning of Eden,
and taught it to perfection,
she did not gain
but they learned to win
with a simple look of a woman.
Have a nice day

What a stunning rose capture Deb but sorry to hear about your flooding. It didn't happen in December when you rushed back so I guess you were due. Move to CA we don't have basements.*Thanks for your comment on Phantom today. You really know how hard that was to get it. I'd tell him to sit up pretty and he'd respond "sure Mom as soon as I knock this darn hat off my head" LOL #7274516
