Wordless Wednesday - Mountain Flowers

My mother loved wild roses. Every time I see them in the mountains, I think of her and it brings back wonderful memories of my special Mom.

Some say a beautiful woman is like a rose- long stemed,rare beauty, and hard to hold.
I know a rose of another kind most rare today, but still you might find- up in the hills growing close to the ground- providing shelter to small things all around. Some thorns for protection are placed here and there, the leaves are many- the heat they can bear.
Yes, beauty is there in a plain lovely way, not imposing or pushy, but there just the same.; August 6, 2008 at 6:47 PM
