The Water Lily
'Art thou from the snowy zone
Of a mountain-summit blown,
Or the blossoms of a dream,
Fashioned in the foamy stream?'
by John B. Tabb (19th Century)
from 'A Victorian Posy' edited by Sheila Pickles
The images are from the garden of a palace on an island in the beautiful Lago Maggiore in Italy.

I now spend a survey of bloggers with such questions.
1. Why did you create a blog?
2. For whom you taking him? Want to be popular?
3. How long will it keep going?

Both photos remind me of watercolours.
This water lily picture makes me so happy. I might print it out and put it in my dreary cubicle.
Thank you all! I delight in Water Lillies.
Melissa, so print it out - that would be lovely and you could dream enchanted dreams in your breaks!
