i adore orange blossoms. My mum and my Nan carried them at their weddings. my blossoms have turned to fruit.. still green but promising delicious oranges through winter!
I shall miss these blossoms and the fresh fruit in abundance in your world. Time went far too fast..we didn't have our second day together..we're sure to plan better next year. I miss your desert already. waving from New Mexico xoxo
It is a sumptious image and haiku. The redolent scent of blossoms and the sweet taste of honey along with the lazy buzzing of a bee. Yes, nothing is missed. Very nice! Noelle
dear gemma, is there anything sweeter than a warm breeze filled with the sweetness of orange blossoms? forgive my late arrival and acknowledgement. i am so sick and just managed to climb from bed to make sure you all know how much i appreciate you in my life.
I posted a pic of the piece you sent me on my blog and linked back to your blog - hope that is ok! Thanks again for sending me such a lovely piece of art!
