The Children's Hour was the 1st poem memorized in grade school (after Edward Lear's The Owl and the Pussycat). Longfellow's poems do pull from the child within me. Yes, blessed to see those sunsets ... perhaps a fun trip for Thelma & Louise ... I love it!<br /><br />Oh dear IG, thank you ... you are a gift! I just returned from reading your post and still smiling :) It's raining here today and even when sunny, can't see the sunset from my home here.joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-52377933514769479312010-04-13T05:38:24.581-04:002010-04-13T05:38:24.581-04:00Stunning sunset; I'm properly envious.

We come and go, work at both places but work seems easier at the lake ... had hoped to get windows washed but Sat was a fickle day ... snow showers, sun, high winds, rain, then the sky opened for the beautiful sunset, perfect for our dinner and friends/ overnight guests for the evening. Worked all day in the garden here today. So much is popping and I can't wrap my arms around all that has to be done ... but ... life is good :)joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-85676281532739997012010-04-12T20:29:43.381-04:002010-04-12T20:29:43.381-04:00Joey, how lovley!

I too never tire of beautiful sunsets, each a unique gift. Here is a link to your Sunday Sunset post: (http://www.scottlawphotography.com/)<br /><br />Thanks Nancy ... I truly feel blessed to have found such a lovely spot. Come and enjoy!<br /><br />Indeed, Kala, and always a joy to see.<br /><br />Thanks Rick ... I love this quote and have used it before.<br /><br />Wish I could share this wonderful sunny morning with you, dear Edith. Back from the lake, we returned in awe of the garden, delighted to see the Yoshino cherry in full bloom against the backdrop of forsythia. I so love Amelanchier, a native tree/shrub here in Michigan. I love the drive to the lake where the forests will soon be glowing in its brilliant white ... at the same time, the forest floor is blanketed with trillium ... it's an awesome site! P.S. Happy to note Mr. Ho-Hum is a fanatic about his edging!<br /><br />Hope all fared well, Monica. We were indeed lulled into total bliss with the above warm temps. Actually, I left for the weekend with too soon plants left outside ... oh well ... <br /><br />Indeed we do, Cameron, whenever we are at the lake. The vernal/autumnal equinox sets directly in front, blessed to watch the sun traverse back and forth throughout the seasons. <br /><br />Thanks, dear Marnie. You have seen so many of my sunsets, hope you're not getting bored :)joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09569378877717221045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36141650.post-33510972402140760552010-04-12T09:35:29.186-04:002010-04-12T09:35:29.186-04:00You chose the perfect poem.

Absolutely lovely and, as CV says, so well matched with the lines from Longfellow.<br /><br />Returning to your comment on your previous posting I was delighted to know that you have Amelanchier in your garden. Such a beautiful shrub/small tree. I once dreamed of creating an orchard of them - all in the mind, of course.
