I love wild flowers..and especially cornflowers..this photo was take a few years ago ..on a happy afternoon in a cornfield...
I WILL be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass,
And the grass rise.
And when lights begin to show
Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine,
And then start down!
~Edna St. Vincent Millay, "Afternoon on a Hill"

Beautiful cornflowers and happy memories of a lovely summer afternoon when you look at the photo:)
Yes, indeed flowers, though delicate and brief, wipe away our sadness and grief-Anita
You know Edna St. Vincent Millay is one of my favorite poets. The picture is delightful! Have a grand day! Cathy
