When the Lord God created the earth and all it's living creatures...
He did it for His glory and our enjoyment as well as our use
well...I sure did enjoy finding this sweet baby dove...
sitting quietly under the banana trees...
waiting for mama and papa doves to bring food
it is very rare to find a fledgling dove as they hide so well
I didn't linger too long so the parents wouldn't hesitate to come back quickly
we've got pineapples coming along
the pineapple blooms are growing into fruit...
and soon, they will lose their lovely pinks and purples as they mature into yellow-orange
the zinnias are going full force...
and since most of the flowers are in a favorite pink color of mine...
it behooves me to pick a few for my table on the veranda to enjoy
the roses are giving their beauty under the veranda...
I'll keep them on the bushes and once they pass their prime and wane...
and as the younger rose buds come up...
and delight with the promise of full blooms...
I'll pick the petals from the old roses...
and scatter them in the breeze for the chickens
while the chickens like the rose petals...
they ignore the zinnias...
and I always pay attention to what my chickens will and will not eat
they usually know what's good and what's not
so, I take advantage of this and bring my pretty zinnias...
to my veranda table for the pleasure of enjoying God's creative work
The works of the Lord are great,
sought out of all them that have pleasure therein.
Psalm 111:2
May your day or night find pleasures in the sweetness of my Lord's grace.
