"In the deep fall
don't you imagine the leaves think how
comfortable it will be to touch
the earth instead of the
nothingness of air and the endless
freshets of wind?"

Joey and the Flowers

I recognize June by the flowers, now. I used to know it by review tests, and restlessness.

What a beautiful statement!! Would that we could all recognize June simply by the flowers, eh?

I have been silently lurking the past couple of weeks, reading posts through Google Reader and not taking the time to chime in. I just wanted you let you know how much I have been enjoying things, though, even if I have not commented on all of the posts. Thank you for such a beautiful blog and your dedication to all things beautiful, pragmatic, and creative, Wendy!
