I did not think that I could see such subtle beauty and grace.
With soft colors, butterfly and hints of perfume for my face;
Mankind toils, sweats, plans and creates such a place;
But the Chief Master Gardener made the human race.

(Some thoughts this morning regarding this beautiful banner)
Even a fool, when he shuts his mouth, is counted (as being) wise.Proverbs 17:28
