Thanks everyone! The poem is lovely, Patty :)
Beautiful rose and picture! I simply thought one of Shakespeare´s poem would go with it and I am therefore sharing it. Greetings SONNET 54 (By William Shakespeare) O, how much more doth beauty beauteous seem By that sweet ornament which truth doth give. The rose looks fair, but fairer we it deem For that sweet odour which doth in it live. The canker-blooms have full as deep a dye As the perfumed tincture of the roses, Hang on such thorns and play as wantonly When summer's breath their masked buds discloses: But, for their virtue only is their show, They live unwoo'd and unrespected fade, Die to themselves. Sweet roses do not so; Of their sweet deaths are sweetest odours made: And so of you, beauteous and lovely youth, When that shall fade, my verse distills your truth.
Excellent! I am glad you found both of these missions.
Apple, I did as you suggested and added the mission Midwestern Gardens. I also found the Great Lakes Monitoring mission and added that, too. Thanks!
