To Stop and Smell the Roses….

Everyday Maisie and I pass a particular property along the road from our place on our way to the river. The owners have a stunning bed of roses of all sorts of colours within sniffing distance of the footpath. I often stop there on our way home…. Just to smell the roses. This red rose is particularly fragrant…. And its bud is beautifully formed. I must thank the owners when I get to see them in person. What a joy it is just to stop and smell the roses…
