The Last Rose


The weather here today is grey, damp and quiet.  Can weather be quiet?  I believe so.  I don't even hear the birds today.  There's one lone woodpecker at the feeder right now.


I was looking out the window at the garden, dull and dying when a shot of pink caught my eye.  What on earth?  It can't be.  Sure enough, when I got out there I saw the very last rose beaming in all it's beauty.  I wish I could describe the scent to you, it's amazing.  I like to think that the garden left me a parting gift.  One last flower until the spring.  Thank you.


I started sewing the rows together on my "Let it Snow" quilt yesterday.  It's coming along nicely.  The last Christmas quilt for this year almost done!
