dreaming of pale ghost mums on a dark, winter's night, said Princess Haiku
Princess Haiku slipped in and out of rain puddles all evening and fortunately arrived at the Haiku ball dressed in chrysanthemum dreams. There is no other way...
Thank you for the photos of flowers which are not blooming here, as yet. I love "cherry blossom tutus". And the pure white, ethereal magnolia does me in, Princess. Are these all blooming in your garden?
Isn't that just lovely; the contrasting butter yellow and ice blue; very nice. I got a chuckle out of the man in the tree below. We always have men in trees cutting down limbs for the electrical lines around here. So glad you found me on facebook and are surfacing too.

The flowers look like they are floating --lovely!
i love chrysanthemum blossoms --each petal.
It seems to me that I landed on another world or rather than I am swimming under the sea. Yes it is a wonderful dream and I feel myself so light.
