needed . .
- a bench

Seeking . . 'Raindrops' ....
- being no sun to fall on me
- Liquid Sunshine shall gently caress my petals of linen
- Seminole Pink Hibiscus

'A Lyrical Connection - 'Raindrops' by Dee Clark
Oh, raindrops
So many raindrops
It feels like raindrops
Falling from my eye-eyes
Falling from my eyes

Shades of Green . .
- midst the pink Seminole Hibiscus
- Azaleas of fuschia
- Bleeding Hearts (leaning across from D's yard)
- a few petals of the Pinwheel Jasmine
- Kalanchoe, green and also with a touch of color
- hanging like unlit lanterns
- brown cones
- long slender ones are male of the Coontie Plant
- member of the Cycad family
- dinosauers/ancient one native to Florida
- top left corner & bottom right .. think those are female cones
- if so, they will have orange seeds in them
- a toxic plant, it has been used by the Seminole Tribe for food
- a long involved process to get starch from the root .. making flour
- this plant is the only one I know of that the rare Atala Butterfly feeds on
- so, one should plant quite a few
- the larvae can strip the leaves quickly

almost . .
- fully opened African Iris
- just looked out the window
- that one petal is outstretched
- white
- purple
- gold
- on very long stems
- a self overlay done just off center
- then, started playing
- in iPiccy.com
- not really sure all the features used
- PaulO could probably tell me what I did
- it was fun having overlays available
- so many, including my own
- this will take more study to figure out
- all the nuances
- should be a fun learning curve
