A Flower? - a photo on Flickriver

A Flower?

            At least it’s not another bloody waterfall!

I do like lilies, and their colours are lovely but I just don’t like their pink hues on photo’s, I think they make much better black and white subjects.

The title?
 I’m sorry but I just can’t write 'flower' without singing the words………(in my head of course, the cat protests too much!)

A flower?
‘If you go down to Willow Farm
To look for butterflies, flutterbyes, gutterflies
Open your eyes, it's full of surprise
Everyone lies like the fox on the rocks
And the musical box’           
                                         Genesis,….. not the biblical chapter.

When Em was younger, we’d take turns putting our own songs on to play, (we still do) and it would infuriate her when I deliberately chose this one as it’s only 26 minutes long! 😂

Don’t worry I’m not going to put a link to it!
