On a warm summer day, I find it pleasant to sit and watch water. It can be a little stream or a mighty river. Or perhaps a quiet lake or pond.
Nymphaeaceae — water lily to folks like me– increase the pleasure of a pond.
Imagine yourself on a bench with this view. Relax. Forget about today’s problems. Watch. Do you see a dragonfly? Skim your gaze around the entire pond. Can you count the blossoms?
Such a fine pond as the one above deserves a public place. This one is part of the Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis. I can picture Janet and Rich, the couple from the sweet romance, Comfort Zone, pausing here during a visit. For more on their story follow the link: https://amzn.to/2ZvL0Av
