Cottage Crape Myrtles




I am blessed....this beautiful thing,
a fuchsia Crape Myrtle,
is growing in my front yard....
It has been one of the last to bloom.
Exclaiming mightily ......
"Welcome to the Cottage!"
I'll be enjoying
these magnificent blooms
all
summer
long!
-
It's all I have to bring today,
This, and my heart beside,
This, and my heart, and all the fields,
And all the meadows wide.
Be sure you count, should I forget
Some one the sum could tell...
This, and my heart, and all the bees
Which in the clover dwell.
~Emily Dickinson
