The Debt
(Paul Laurence Dunbar)
This is the debt I pay
Just for one riotous day,
Years of regret and grief,
Sorrow without relief.
Pay it I will to the end—
Until the grave, my friend,
Gives me a true release—
Gives me the clasp of peace.
Slight was the thing I bought,
Small was the debt I thought,
Poor was the loan at best—
God! but the interest!
LOL!!! No that's not how I feel, but it's good to finally deliver on my promises of flowers from the many shows and gardens that I've visited over the summer. I keep on writing things like "Oh, and I have some more Fuchsias to share with you all" and then I forget to share 'em.
Well, here's some sharing. ;-)

Lovely.
Most of these pretties come from visits to the South Coast Botanic Garden. Yeah, I was kind of lazy about garden hopping over the last three months. Oh well, I'll do better in the upcoming months. Here are a few more pretties.

Dahlia: Unforgettable |
Brugmansia: Yellow Angel's Trumpet |
And let's cherish this song by The Association, which topped the early Autumn charts in 1966.
Enjoy!!!
