Sharon's blog: ♫ Bright, Bright, Bright Sunshiny Day ♫

Posted on Jun 23, 2013 2:47 PM

Old songs, old colors, old daylilies, old gardens, but it doesn't matter - they are just as beautiful today as they were years ago.  The song "I Can See Clearly Now" was recorded in 1972 by Johnny Nash and that's about the same time my gardens began here in Western Kentucky.

Seems as if nothing changes, seems as if nothing is new, but the truth is I am just as excited about every bloom as I was the ♫ First Time Ever I Saw its Face ♫ all those years ago (Roberta Flack ~ 1972, again).  Trouble is, I've lost the tags, forgotten the names, or buried the markers beneath the soil; I'd have to search forever to find them.  Doesn't matter, I love them anyway and the joy is in remembering who gave them to me. Those names will not be forgotten. 

In today's blooms I found sweet memories.  If you scroll over most of the images, you'll see a note or two.
