Words for Wednesday
The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are: 1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.
Lovely.
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as an ugly rose, is there?
Aww I just wish they lasted a bit longer when they're cut. I received a dozen long stemmed last week and they lasted 4 days.
ReplyDeleteThey've had an amazing year this year, haven't they? Even our 'black thumb' roses flowered, which hardly ever happens!!
ReplyDeleteHappy travels!!
Ooohhhhhh. I miss the roses we had in Trinity gardens - your neck of the woods is famous for them but I can count on one hand how many I've seen here in Flemmo.....
ReplyDeleteJayne; you're absolutely right. They're all beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBaino; did they come with a little sachet of stuff to put in the water? It helps them last longer. Otherwise dissolve a little sugar in hot water and add it to the vase water, that helps too. Change water daily and trim a teensy bit off each stem at the same time.
Red Nomad OZ; The dry winter has set everything flowering amazingly well.
Kath; I could take a walk past your old house and see how your roses are doing. And at the same time get a good look at everyone elses.
P.S. Kath; Start a trend, plant a rose.
ReplyDeleteMagnificent pictures.
