Thanks very much for taking the time to visit, comment or leave a fave.
I bought this as I got flowers for a friend and it looked wonderful for almost 2 weeks! I was amazed!
Happy Friday everyone!
This is one of the most extravagant tulips that I've come across. I'm looking forward to spring to see if they come up again.
Edited with texture in Topaz Studio.
Thank you for stopping by and for leaving me a comment! Have a great day and weekend!

" I love the ground whereon she stands "
Here is "Celtic Woman`s" haunting version:
Do give it a listen/look;
SONG;

"Black is the colour, of my true loves hair,
Her lips are soft like roses fair,
She has the sweetest smile and the gentlest hands,
I love the ground, whereon she stands"
" I love my love, and well she knows,
I love the ground, where on she goes.
I write her a letter, Just a few short lines,
And my heart it dies, a thousand times"
[ Unknown, traditional, Glasgow, Scotland, 18th century. ]
The evening light slowly fades out to the west
over Lugala and beyond and as far as the eye can see, in the Wicklow Mountains National Park, Ireland.
This lovely mountain is also called "Fancy Mountain".A pretty name for a pretty place.
Im going to ask my friend to write a slip jig on the fiddle for me and call it " The Fancies of Lugalaw " and then every time I go up here, not only will I have the view and the silence but Ill also have the music going around in my head as well. Now isnt that a proper kind of "madness"! Lol! P@t.

A few people have said that they found the song very sad, particularly the extra verse I put in above.
We may be completely wrong as often in songs and poems of this period from Ireland and Scotland, the woman is actually ones homeland.Many womens names were used in the place of the country and the broken heart and unrequited love has to do with the country been in "strangers hands" and un free and would particularly apply to Scotland and Ireland.
It seems to be in vogue now to be patriotic and whereas a certain amount of it is to be admired, we must be careful, as too much of it has plunged the World into too many wars. We dont want a border here in this country. We had one for a hundred years and lots died because of it. Mostly innocent as always.I do think that they wont allow one and Im hopeful.
Ive just updated this photo as lots of people may not have seen it. I actually think its my best ever and please do listen to the song and watch the video as its amazing!!! P@t.
My gorgeous potted pansies are thriving in my front garden! I love all the pastel coloured faces, hope you do too =) Have a happy & safe day my friends!

Not often I see a Cremello horse; he was a real beauty to watch.

I loved how this Black and White Warbler was perched on the bits of lichen.

Showy Wild Indigo Duskywing skipper butterfly displaying its exquisite coloration and its exotic tapestry-like patterned wings.
Check out its furry legs. Common.

I love the wing patterns on these tiny (5 mm long) Leafhoppers.
Happy Wing Wednesday!
