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

Some near and far-away blossoms


Thank you for coming! If you enjoyed your visit to Florrie's Garden and are now ready to explore other paths on the web, allow me to lead you towards a few of my personal favourite websites. These other web homes have all brought me inspiration in one way or another, and hopefully they will do the same for you.

If you are the owner of your own garden, blog or website and would like to add a link to Florrie's Garden there, I prepared this for you. All you need to do is copy and paste the text inside this box, and this button with my website's logo will appear. If you can save the image on your computer and upload it on your own server for the link, that would be even better. Please leave me a message on my guestbook if you do, so that I can retribute you and add your website here too. It will look wonderful on the neighbours section!
