Fphoto Friday

I love daffodils and I've always wanted to try take a good picture of one. I don't know if your camera is the best for taking certain shots, so I love Picnik.com.


Come see other great pictures at Married to the Preacher! Her photo's are amazing!

Daffodils!

Daffodils are my favorite flower of all times! I love how hearty they are, and what they tell us about Spring truly being here! I could have a whole yard full of them! Forget the grass give me Daffodils!




Marsha had this poem on her blog the other day and I just needed to post it here, enjoy:

"Daffodils" (1804)

I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,

They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:

I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thought

What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.
By William Wordsworth (1770-1850).

Song of Solomon 2: 11-12

See! The winter is past;

the rains are over and gone.
Flowers appear on the earth;

the season of singing has come,

the cooing of doves

is heard in our land.

1 Peter 1:23-25

For you have been born again, not of perishable seed,

but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.

For, "All men are like grass,

and all their glory is like the flowers of the field;

the grass withers and the flowers fall,

but the word of the Lord stands forever."

And this is the word that was preached to you.
