RONDO...VIOLETS

"Doing what you like is freedom.

Liking what you do is happiness."

Frank Tyger

 

For HAPPY week. I find this such a joyful image, you too?

 

The viola is a large family containing 500 species, they are on record in Greece from the 4th century B.C.

 

Later in Europe, it was discovered that a plant similar to a viola grew in open areas. The plant found mostly in fields and amongst rocks in the Alps, hence Alpine.

 

It became known as a wild pansy (French: pensée). It might have been a romantic Frenchman who 'named' it... A pensée can be a thought or a saying, short or it can be as long as a paragraph, a page, a poem!

 

Maybe he thought of his loved-one, dried one amongst some book he carried? Juste une pensée... lol.

 

These delicately fragrant flowers come in a wonderful variety of colours. The dark centres in some flowers are thought to resemble little faces.

 

These are a smaller variety (a flower not much bigger than my thumbnail!), that I have in the garden, I could not resist photographing them in the studio...

 

As always, than, you for your lovely comments and thoughts, M, (*_*)
