Spout... by marlboromaam

Spout...

My old water can spout... If we take an old Robin Williams' routine to heart... and "people are kinda like flowers" in your garden... How do you care for them? Do you step on them, belittle and berate them? Do you ignore them and figure they'll just go away? Or, do you treat them with kindness and love? I just love walking through this 365 garden! Some of you are real home grown beauties and some of you are as wild as any delicate and lovely wildflower on our western plains! God bless ya! I love my garden and every flower within it - wild or hybrid. Thank you, my 365er friends, for all your support you show me every day! Yeah, I know... I'm the queen of corn (as in corny), but that's just me.

For your listening pleasure while you go through your 365 feed... Ladies, watch out for the hunks!!! Whew! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NC0IhlquYlI
Love this!

I endorse what you say, Mags! We are in so many lives and it is uplifting! Although I did look on someone else's site and found the first expletive I've heard.! Needless to say I didn't follow them!

Its all about the words, I have to laugh at how many of us are unconsciously getting as good at writing as with photography :)
April 30th, 2012  
Cool composition! And I totally enjoyed your description for the shot. What a wonderful way of seeing the 365 community! I've learned so much since being a part of it. PS. I clicked on the video link (well, you did mention something about "the hunks"!) and received this message: "The uploader has not made this video available in your country." Haha, I get that sometimes, it amuses me. 8)
