Dahlia moments
The other weekend at market I got given a beautiful bunch of dahlias.
You probably already know by now my deep love of flowers.
I was first introduced to dahlias by a woman very close to my heart. Who had a hand in helping me raise my children.
I thought of her and some of the lovely heart moments that we have shared - as I made those big bunch of dahlias into a circlet on the table, then a posy and photographing them.
Afterwards I quickly needed to get them in some water. In the hope they’d last for ages.
So I put a few of them in water, leaning on the edge of a white bowl with daisies too.
They reminded me of elegant ladies sitting by the edge of the pool dangling there legs in the water.
It was something that we would have done back all those years ago.
Appreciating the beauty in things , laughter, sunshine, being creative, aroha and being in nature. A few of the things we loved and shared.
Oh and our children- of course !
