In our woodland garden: Antique pink roses

Posted by unexpectedincommonhours on

The antique pink roses on the rosebush by the road finally bloomed, and they are lovely pale shades of pink.


“The rose is a rose from the time it is a seed to the time it dies. Within it, at all times, it contains its whole potential. It seems to be constantly in the process of change: Yet at each state, at each moment, it is perfectly all right as it is.“     
(Paulo Coelho)

      I wish I could get out more to take photos, but I can’t. So I just take whatever I can close to home.

    Love the Coelho quote almost as much as the beautiful pictures.
