Garden Appendix

In a quiet heart once did reside
A garden beating, its beauty tied
To blossoms exuding a fragrant grace
Yearning for melodies to embrace

With eyes aglow as autumn's ember
See blooms reaching for the sky's tender
In life's embrace and meadows wide
Patience becomes the garden's guide

About this Website

Florrie's Garden is a personal website, blog and digital garden by Florrie, first published on January 1st, 2024. The site is handcoded in Windows Notepad and hosted by Ichi. It's written in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The text is currently displayed in the Merriweather and Averia Serif Libre fonts, under the SIL Open Font License. The floral texture in the background is from Vintage Backgrounds and recoloured by me. The codes for mobile accessibility were borrowed from Middlepot's base code. The desktop cursor effect with the twinkling little stars is a script by mf2fm, and the mini-icons at beginning of each section are a script by Feather Icons. The Q&A feedback form is hosted by Frogtab and installed using this tutorial. The messages are end-to-end encrypted. Most images are hosted externally through Imgur and Catbox.

Content Disclaimer

Florrie's Garden is a safe-for-work website and does not contain any mature content. However, it is created by an adult woman with the intent of sharing perceptions about her personal experiences, and therefore might contain discussions about complicated subjects such as mental health, sociopolitical movements or religion. If you are a person sensitive towards such content, use your personal discretion.

Website Intentions

It is my personal intention that all the content which is written and shared in Florrie's Garden should:

Be a genuine representation of myself, of the experiences I have lived and the person that I am
Make the reader feel as if they are holding a piece of paper in their hands, a letter from a friend
Grow and change, bending with the wind and blooming in season, alongside who I am becoming
Be a comfortable place to rest the eyes, distant from the scintillating colours of the open web
Be abound with poetry, not in words but in essence, one which makes the ordinary extraordinary
