I Still Miss YouEven though
I can't be with you,
I can still

see you,
smell you,
touch you,
taste you,

every night,
until I open my eyes;
then I just miss you.

Forget-Me-Notsby *Jenna-Rose

Forget-Me-Nots
_{- full view for details -}

Forget-Me-Not flowers ( more info on them here [link] ), photo taken back in May. In the Spring, my yard and the surrounding area is just thick with these tiny blue beauties. It's so hard to get a clear shot of them; they're hard to focus on! And the wind always seems to be blowing lol.

Could every blossom find a voice
And sing a strain to me,
I know where I would place my choice,
Which my delight should be.
I would not choose the lily tall,
The rose from musky grot,
But I would still my minstrel call
The blue Forget-me-not.
And I on mossy bank would lie,
Of brooklet, rippling clear;
And she of the sweet, azure eye,
Close at my listening ear,
Should sing into my soul a strain
Might never be forgot,
So rich with joy, so rich with pain--
The blue Forget-me-not.
Ah! every blossom hath a tale,
With silent grace to tell,
From rose that reddens to the gale
To modest heather-bell;
But oh! the flower in every heart
That finds a sacred spot
To bloom, with azure leaves apart,
Is the Forget-me-not.
Love plucks it from the mosses green
When parting hours are high,
And places it Love's palms between
With many an ardent sigh;
And bluely up from grassy graves
In some loved churchyard spot
It glances tenderly and waves
The dear Forget-me-not.

You're welcome!

I might be rambling on about rubbish when I say this but I love how the forget-me-nots differ quite a bit! The ones I see in the garden are always a fairly deep blue and have really rounded petals but the ones in your photo are a lot lighter and more delicate looking.
I love your shot

The bottom flower is focussed beautifully and is very crisp <3

I always loved the Forget-Me-Nots... they don't exist in Uruguay, though...

*Jenna-Rose Dec 15, 2009 Hobbyist Photographer

They are pretty little flowers, all over the place here in Spring. Too bad they don't have them where you are

Beautiful! These beauties drew my eye immediately through their dainty and glorious color and form. I love these flowers, they are one of my favorites, and this image is one of the nicest that I've seen. Forget-me-nots are such a romantic flower and I always think of the Victorian period and the ladies with their tea parties in the beautiful English gardens.

You have a terrific composition with such clarity that I feel that I can pluck these dainty flowers right out of the image. "Wish I could!"

LOL
