Nobody sees a flower, really

Nobody sees a flower, really, we haven't time and to see takes time, like having a friend takes time.

Georgia O' Keefe, Artist

Another reminder, again from The National Trust series of cards, of the things that keep us connected to our souls, or at least let us drop the exterior for a bit to give it a chance to breath.

The photo this time is from my garden this summer.  Just when I thought it was all over for my clematis for the year it sprang a surprise second blooming, quite quite perfect and all the more appreciated for the surprise.

If you click on the photo it should reward you with a larger version for you to 'really see' it if you would like a moment with nature in your day.
