Gorgeous Bourbon Roses


Kim Smith

I received more photos from author Kim Smith. These were taken in her garden in Gloucester, Mass. Gorgeous!

She accompanied her photos with another poem by Emily Dickinson:




A sepal, a petal, and a thorn

Upon a common summer’s morn—

A flash of Dew—A Bee or two—

A Breeze—

A caper in the trees—

And I’m a Rose!

Hi there, I live in the UK and loved the name of your blog so thought I would try it out! I could not believe that roses growing in my garden when I moved in, that have not until now been identified are identical to the shot of the roses sent in by your friend!!! I love your blog! Sharon
