Sublime Sunday - Beautiful Sunday - Sunday Purple Color Challenge

Oh, Sunday! Where would the week be without you? We would just be another six days, wouldn't we? You complete me, make me whole, finish the cycle. I thank you for that.

Threaded in the essence, your whispered touch
Collect in my thoughts
The linger of your kiss
Perhaps
Breath so soft against my neck
Touching that place
In my heart
Again

Today will be a down day for me, which means that I will probably be spending most of my day in my gardens, giving them a little extra love and deadheading and weeding a bit. I planted some marigold seeds late in the season and now I need to take the time to thin them out and spread the wealth to other parts of the garden. Here! Take a couple of flowers! Flowers! There always must be flowers!

Today is Sunday, a most popular day! This post is for #BeautifulSunday by @ace108 (where you share the story of your day with us!) and #SublimeSunday by @c0ff33a (where everything eclectic finds a home!) and #SundayPurpleColorChallenge by @Kalemandra see here and there are so many more great ones!

Even the fuschia on the porch is loving life right now. The right amount of heat, guarded against the sun and plenty of water. Oh! Life is good. Just ask this plant.

The orchids are growing wild and beautiful without so much care. I never knew they were so easy, but, then again... I always thought I had to live exotically to make them grow nicely. I was so wrong!

Talk about easy does it! If you ever hesitated to try them, don't! You will be surprised at how well they seem to do!

This has been such a good year for all lilies. Despite the hard rain at night and the wind that seems to accompany it, these delicate beauties have persevered. I like lilies because they seem to last forever and ever.

All last week, I was out of town camping on an island. Well, nothing exotic or tropical, but, an island off the coast of Virginia, on their Eastern Shore. It was a lot of fun and a lot of rain involved. Usually, the two don't mingle well, but, I think this time it did. I even got to play in the mud a bit. No, I don't want to grow up. Not today anyway.

This is what I got to see! Ponies swimming!

Of course, that always inspires me to take our little guy out for some good exercise and training. He never tires of it. I believe he was born to jump.

I have had a most enjoyable Sunday, sublimely so! I have gone to Church, walked my miles, ridden my little pony, Henry and weeded the garden. Now it's time to think about eating. A chapter for another story.

You may be far and away
But the pendulum swings
Always back to you

Don't ever forget what wonderful world we live in, people. Let's hold hands around the globe and make this earth really spin. Some days, it is not as easy to see, so we must try harder to give everyone the proper focus.

Sort:  

You've got a good collection of flowers photos. One with orchids even.
Most amazing to me is to see the horses swimming.

My orchids are outside now, but, I bring them indoors for the winter and spring. Horses are actually very good swimmers. It is surprising to see them in the water sometimes, but, the islands are close.

And I have money now! Tip!!

Every Sunday is a #BeautifulSunday with @dswigle, wonderful poetry and incredible flowers - it's a feast for the eyes and the mind.

Are those Ponies swimming or drowning? It's a fine line, that must be a very deep body of water to have them hanging so low.

My favourite flower is the lilac one, so delicate and pretty - quite breathtaking.

Thank you so much for sharing such an amazing post for your #SublimeSunday, I throughly enjoyed it.

Thank you! You are so sweet! The ponies have a swim every year called the Chicoteague Pony Swim and they go from island to island. They actually swim quite well. It is pretty deep, but, this is the ocean and it is low tide. :)

The lilacs is my favorite too. I haven't told you, but, I want to thank you for taking the time to go and write a very beautiful comment on each and every one of these. It is noted and appreciated to see you go through that kind of trouble.

Tip!! @c0ff33a

WOW! Yous sure pack a lot into a day that is just getting going LOL!

I love you r soft focus photos and your dream like poetry.

Such a colorful post! Just awesome!

Hello? You know that my day is almost done. Well not done, but the work is. I can't have that all hanging over my head. Now it's time to do something fun. I actually did not realize this comment even posted because it didn't show up and my steam it has not been working very well on my mobile app today. It hasn't worked in days. Boo.

When I really want to say but did not was thank you very much for the lovely words and you know how I could not resist making a poem now and then and then again. So I hope you're having a wonderful Sunday and I'm sure we'll catch up with one another soon.

Behave! @old-guy-photos

Ponies swimming !! Never have seen that ^_^

I remember and recognized the good chap Henry, he is a little green on your alien's portrait ...LoL

That is my favorite picture of Henry! That was the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me.

Thank you again and again. XOXO

Tip!

Oh my goodness, what a gorgeous flowers, swimming and jumping ponies wow!!! Well they look like horses to me, but that's okay, lol. Stunning shots Denise 🌸💖🌸

Haha! You are right! Most of them are over 15 hands, which is technically horse size. :) It has been a wild week for sure, especially camping out at the pony swim. The island was filled with people and it rained! You think that would make people go home, but, noooooo!

We are all troopers! :)

Thank you, Lena !! You are always so thoughtful and kind! Love to you! 💖

Always a pleasure and love to you too my Dear............but I had no idea, ponies can be so big .Glad you had fun, even in the rain ,lol 🌸💖🌸

I haven't shrunk yet! ;)

Well you could grow instead, like mushrooms, lol

I could! :) It has been raining enough for that!~

Not much rain here last few days!

Those flower photos are fabulous Denise and the horses look like they are in a swimathon. What were they up to?
The little guy...cute x 10 what is it's name?

It is called the Chincoteague Pony Swim! [see here}(https://steemit.com/nature/@dswigle/pony-swim-on-chincoteague-island) They do this twice a year, but, in the fall to no fanfare like in the summer. The little guy's name is Henry and we bought him at the pony swim auction a few years back. He was born in the wild.

Thanks for the visit and there were a few posts all last week on it as that is where I was. :)

I'll take a look. We've got the grandkids staying and things are a little hectic atm.
It's all I can do, just to get a post out sometimes.
They are out today so I'm trying yo do a bit of catch up. 😊
Henry looks lovely btw 😊

@molometer Thank you! I am sure it gets hectic! Whenever anyone else is in the house, it is hard for me to find time to post and read.

Thank you! We do love Henry. He is one of the family! Here is Henry and me when he was a few months old. I was his herd and I would run around the pasture so he would follow me. He missed running with the herd. :)

Stunning flower photography and I love the close up of the ponies swimming.

Enjoy your weeding. I'm just off out for dinner! 😍

Hi, Gillian! @gillianpearce! Thank you so much and the ponies will be a memory that goes with me for the rest of the year, until next one, of course!

Ha! The weeding was very productive, if nothing else. Have a wonderful dinner! What is on the menu?

We ended going out for a pub meal Denise @dswigle and I might post some pictures later. I haven't had a chance to look at them yet.

I had ham egg and chips which were very good but I'm looking forward to my first home cooked dinner this evening, since I got to Devon on Friday. I'm missing my vegetables. 😂

Yummy! Egg and Chips! I agree! I do love my veggies!

I love this post.. the soft photos. horses, and poetry. Well done.

Touching that place
In my heart

This means nothing but with a typo I made here I realized the word touch without the "t" is ouch. Omg

Awww! Thank you, lovely! Good morning to you! Well, afternoon, but, you know what I mean! Appreciate the wonderful comment. You always leave such nice words!

I hope you have a beautiful day! Happy Sunday!

Tip! Oh!! I am out of money, honey! Boo!!!

LOL That is true, @photobe!

LOL See? My eyes chose not to see it! :)
