Album Description:
Friendship. What a desolate place would be a world without a flower! It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome. Are not flowers the stars of the earth, and are not our stars the flowers of the heaven. - A.J. Balfour

Why do many of us feel the way we do towards flowers? At the fundamental biological building block level, we are related, as all living things are. We relate to the beauty of the flower as it calls to our souls and we respond instinctively; it is the call of eternity, of evolution and a long standing infinite relationship. Those who understand this will never look askance at a flower. A rose is an epitome of such beauty; it does not however mean that others are less beautiful. Flowers are like music, they are universal in their expression. Joke, thank you for this incredibly beautiful album and the captions of underlying thoughts; they are sensitive and meaningful. God bless you, my friend! Best wishes, Suresh

Dearest Joke! It warms my heart to see your efforts, and the happy reactions you've gotten! You bring smiles to the faces of many! All your flower photographs are beautiful! When I visited Ien's flower power photographs, they reminded me of the song "The Rain The Park & Other Things". Ien found a lnk to the song, and I think it fits this album, and you as well! So her is the song for the flower girl, and her sister! Hope you like it too! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwJ6whQ0TW4 ...Liefs en kusjes, Johnny:)
