 I love it here.

Me too. Look at those beautiful Artemisias, their silvery foliage providing the perfect backdrop for those showy scabiosas.

How lovely, and as for those trailing lobelias, they complement the summer sky whilst the white petunias mimic the fluffy white clouds floating languidly above us. 

Just look at the weeping willow, its drooping branches laden with leaves of the palest green as if shedding tears of joy. 

Oh my goodness, my eyes just have fallen upon something that will make our visit a day to remember.

Pray, what do you see?

The waiter with our beer and burgers!

    Poetry nourishes the soul, but a burger is necessary for the stomach

    Good ending Keith. What’s an evening out without good food

    A beer and burger sounds really nice. If only we could grow beer and burgers in the garden.

    Dear Keith,

    Lovely how these two while away the time enjoying the scenery until their food comes. Fun dialogue.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    Keith you speak the poetry of flora well. Sounds like an idyllic location for burgers and beer.
