My hundred thousand bells of blue,
The splendour of the spring,
They carpet all the woods anew
With royalty of sapphire hue;
The Primrose is the Queen ’tis true
But surely I am King.
Ah yes,
The peerless woodland King.

Cherie, are any of yours still out at home?
I don’t have any in my garden, but yes there are places nearby where they are still out.
Sheer beauty!
Thank you
Ah, a pleasure for my eyes.
And I am far from being a monarchist.
I am glad you enjoyed the view. Nature has such beautiful Kings and Queens
Ah… You must feel like a little princess walking in the woodland surrounded by Kings of Bluebell and Queens of Primrose.
Ha.. Don’t tell me you’re Princess Cherry!
I shall leave it to others to decide whether or not I am a princess
Totally awesome, Cherie, and what a great quote.
Thanks Ginnie
