This morning I meant to visit our lower forest to see if the wild sweet peas were blooming, but I just couldn't get past these beautiful Rough Eyelash flowers that were all staring up in reverence at the sun! Walter "Walt" Whitman (May 31, 1819 – March 26, 1892) was an American poet, essayist and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism, incorporating both views in his works. Whitman is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse. His work was very controversial in its time, particularly his poetry collection Leaves of Grass, which was described as obscene for its overt sexuality. Wikipedia: Walt Whitman

This afternoon I took the dogs out with me into our smaller meadow, and it was such a beautiful day. Warm, breezy, wonderful, perfect, the smell of warm grass was so nice, I wanted to stay out there for hours! The dogs had such fun, I laughed at their antics whenever I looked up to see what they were up to! For me, there were endless beautiful flowers to take pictures of, but I couldn't keep away from these stunning blossoms, called "Common Vetch", but hardly common when it comes to being beautiful! :) Carolyn Gold Heilbrun (January 13, 1926 – October 9, 2003) was an American academic and prolific feminist author of both important academic studies and popular mystery novels under the pen name of Amanda Cross.
