A wonderful pic showing the arrival of the spring and a thoughtful quote.
It’s my favourite spring quote.
Nice quote! (and a lovely photo as well)
Beautiful !
Oscar Wilde = genius.
Beautiful, photo and Oscar!
Lovely combination!
I assume “grown-ups” excludes gardeners. That photo is pure glory — thank you!
Or perhaps it implies that gardeners take a child-like pleasure in each new flower at any age.
Nice post, the wild flowers are just starting here in Bavaria!
They must be a beautiful sight.
Great quote.
