Street Flowers
by petal & pins
I love coming across a random self seeded flower where I least expect to see one.
When I saw this pansy and poppy the Oscar Wilde quote “We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars” popped into my head.
It’s part of the lyrics of the Pretenders song Message Of Love – and before I knew it I was humming the tune as I continued on my walk down the road.
I love your photos of these intrepid fleurs de la rue! Whenever I see such, I think of the incredible, indomitable will of a tiny seed to grow against all odds. Inspiring!
Oh Eliza it is nice to hear that you too see joy in these and I love your description of them!
