When you need to leave the world behind, Forget-Me-Not Ponds is the place to go. An early morning campfire was a great way to unwind and destress.

Today is Remembrance Day.

We pause for a minute at 1100 hours on 11/11 each year to remember. The time and date were chosen to commemorate the end of World War l and was originally known as Armistice Day and renamed Remembrance Day after World War ll.

The name "forget-me-not" comes from the German "Vergissmeinnicht", which means exactly "don't forget me", and has been translated into many languages. According to legend, the following event took place in the Middle Ages: A knight and his betrothed were walking along a river when he picked a bouquet of forget-me-nots. Because his armor was so heavy, he fell into the water. Just before he drowned, he threw the bouquet to his beloved and shouted "forget me not". The flower is associated with romance and tragic fates. It was often worn by women as a sign of fidelity and eternal love.

Spring Garden Macro in memory of all those that we do not wish to forget

Myosotis est un genre de plantes herbacées de la famille des Boraginaceae. On en retrouve une centaine d'espèces dans les régions tempérées ou montagneuses à travers le monde. Certaines espèces et variétés sont utilisées pour fleurir les jardins. Elles se ressèment facilement et peuvent devenir envahissantes.

If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden.

You can just move over now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

You can just forget it now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

You can just move over now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

You can just forget it now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

And if you must

Come my way

I would put you back in place

And if you must

Come my way

I would put you back in place

And when you're broken

Or when you're slowly breaking down

And when you're sorry

I said I'm sorry too

I'm sorry to let you down

You can just move over now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

You can just forget it now

You never came around

Never came around

Never came around

勿忘草   in my garden

“Lest we forget” – three very simple, yet also very powerful words. First used in an 1897 poem written by Rudyard Kipling called “Recessional”, to mark Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee, they caution us to be careful not to forget.

 

As we take a moment this Armistice Day to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our peace, prosperity and stability, and those who fight today to protect us still, let us also hope that conflicts around the world will come to a swift conclusion, not least of all in Ukraine and in Gaza.

 

Armistice Day or Remembrance Day is a memorial day observed in Commonwealth member states since the end of the First World War to honour armed forces members who have died in the line of duty. It falls on the 11th of November every year. Remembrance Day is marked at eleven o’clock (the time that the armistice was declared) with a minute’s silence to honour the fallen. Following a tradition inaugurated by King George V in 1919, the day is also marked by war remembrances in many non-Commonwealth countries.

Forever can never be long enough for me

To feel like I've had long enough with you

Forget the world now, we won't let them see

But there's one thing left to do

 

Now that the weight has lifted

Love has surely shifted my way

 

Marry me

Today and every day

Marry me

If I ever get the nerve to say "Hello" in this cafe

Say you will

Mm-hmm

Say you will

Mm-hmm

O little one,

My little one,

Come with me,

Your life is done.

 

Forget the future,

Forget the past.

Life is over

Breathe your last.

We currently have a carpet of pretty blue forget-me-nots brightening up the garden :)
