Awash with splendour
Nature’s reds and golds shine bright
Summer’s now ablaze

Wow, my favorite flowers ablaze! 🙂 Something was cutting my baby sunflowers at the base of the stem, even though they’re in a fenced garden (still have a few intact). Glad to see you have a field of them! 🙂
Do they not bloom later in the Summer, Sue? I’m not very green-fingered, but seem to remember them later rather than earlier. They’re very impressive, aren’t they?
Hi Eugenia… I think I’m in your spam folder again… I’ve commented on your Opalescence post and replied to Sue, but I’ve vanished into the ether once more! 😀
Summer’s having a good try at being ablaze down here, but it is yet to match that beautiful image🌝 Funnily enough, (I’ve only just caught up with this one) I’m working on a sunflower 🌻 post currently…of sorts 😉 Slow progress as I find myself caught up in creating arty thingies and one thing leads to another…and the post itself keeps on being “in progress”🙃 Maybe I will stay here for a while and continue to gaze upon the blaze!
I very often find myself waylaid, Icewolf. I’m meant to be reading this afternoon, I’ve given myself permission to… but I got a little waylaid with replying to comments. Good thing too, if you ask me, as I’m that far behind!
Summer’s here today. It’s scorching.

They’re very joyful, CM, aren’t they? And they seem to spring up out of nowhere, don’t they?
