We were out for our morning walk on a cloudy morning. Nobody else was around. There were worries in the back of my mind.
Suddenly something caught my eye.
It was a bit of golden yellow fighting its way out of a rock wall. I stopped, turned to look and it made me smile.
Art saw me turn and smile.
"You should take a photo of it," he said.
I did.
And he did too.
Isn't it funny how sometimes, it doesn't take much to lift your spirits?

And then...
A few days later, I saw this.
Yes, I know it's a weed growing where it shouldn't but I'm smiling right now just looking at the photo.
That would make me smile too. In fact, I think it just did.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice pop of color in the middle of the dull concrete. Nice photos!
ReplyDeleteBeauty springs from hard times.
ReplyDeleteWell, some may call them weeds but they certainly brighten up a dreary day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the morning pops of color.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots!
ReplyDeleteThe last shouldn't be called a weed rather a "wild" flower.
ReplyDeleteThat last one looks like a daisy--so pretty! There is a lot to take away from flowers (or wild ones) blooming in impossible looking situations. We can do that too.
ReplyDeleteYou are right! So much fun!
ReplyDeleteI love those yellow flower "weeds" in the sidewalk! They pop up in my yard when I don't expect them and are so pretty, we don't cut the grass.
ReplyDeleteBoth pictures made me smile, too. :-)
ReplyDeleteLin Floyd says nature always has a way of reminding us of what's important-life, friends and family first...
ReplyDeleteHumans do have worries. But keep smiling Kay!
ReplyDeleteIn my horticultural book that is not a weed. It is beautiful and so is that poppy, glowing there all on it's own.
ReplyDeleteBloom where you are planted, however you are planted.
It's more like a bouquet than a weed.
ReplyDeleteLife does find a way.
ReplyDeleteSurprising that many plants and establish and exist in such limited circumstances.
ReplyDeleteLittle rays of sunshine put there to brighten your day
ReplyDeleteBoth are pretty! I don't think the daisy one is a weed. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteMore and more I find nature is how i become more peaceful in this world full of artificiality.
ReplyDeleteSome weds are pretty too. That one was! This is Margie from Margie's Musings..not Anonymous!
ReplyDeleteI don't think either flower would be counted as a weed. They certainly bring delight to the eye, no matter what they are.
ReplyDeleteYellow is such a cheerful colour too.
ReplyDeleteNice to see your photographs.
All the best Jan
