My daughter added this drawing of the Habiscus to her notebook.
I am alone with nature,
With the soft September day;
The lifting hills above me,
With the goldenrod are gay.
Across the fields of ether
Flit butterflies at play;
And cones of garnet sumac
Glow down the country way.
The autumn dandelion
Beside the roadway burns;
Above the lichened boulders
Quiver the plumed ferns.
The cream-white silk of the milkweed
Floats from its sea-green pod;
From out the mossy rock-seams
Flashes the goldenrod.

Today was a perfect day to take a walk around and enjoy the outdoors. My, what you can find when you take the time to look. We took a little walk around the house with our camera and this is what we found.
