Twin Pansies Aw!

a rose by any other name would smell just as much...

It's a line from a cartoon, I forget which, maybe my sister would know. Was it Musky the muskrat? Anyway, Montagues and Capulets aside,


here is my unique perspective on what's in a name at Left Hand Waving - my first time there :) https://sites.google.com/site/lefthandwaving/oonah-v-joslin

Here's a bonus haiku:

a bee on the snap-dragon

buzzed off before I snapped

camera shy

Last year I had big boxes built from railway sleepers erected in my garden and the neighbours wondered what they were for. This year they are fulfilling their purpose and hopefully by next year these plants will have climbed to the top.
