Os campos de França estavam cheios de papoilas e outras flores silvestres... um espectáculo digno de ser visto. Sempre que passávamos por campos assim, lembrava-me deste quadro de Monet:
The fields of France were full of poppies and other wildflowers... what a view. Whenever we'd go through fields like these, I'd think of this paiting by Monet:
Claude Monet, Les Pavots à Argenteuil, 1873, Musée d'Orsay, Paris
Noutro campo, não resisti a fazer um ramo com o que havia à mão. Ah, como gosto de flores espontâneas!
In another field, I couldn't resist making a small bouquet with whatever I could find. Oh, how I love spontaneous flowers!

Lindas flores, belas paisagens
ReplyDeleteObrigada por me fazer sentir a beleza dos campos da França e Inglaterra mesmo estando do outro lado do Atlântico.
ReplyDeleteSou sua visitante assídua e apreciadora do seu blog.
I do so love your spontaneous bouquets! I crave them all... ;)
ReplyDeleteConcha,
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful flowers ! If you want to keep your poppies for (quite) a long time in a vase, you have to burn the end of the stem, so that the sap remains in the stem.

Beautiful poppies and cute shoes, too!

São realmente uma maravilha os campos assim! Espero que já esteja mais quentinho aí!
ReplyDeleteThese landsape full of poppies also reminds me of this painting by Michele Cascella

ReplyDeleteThe sight of those poppies is always bitter-sweet to me, and I am reminded of this poem written in 1915 by a Canadian soldier, which is always read here in Australia on ANZAC Day. (The day we commemorate those lost in conflict).
ReplyDeleteIn Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Oh Lindy, what a beautiful but sad, sad poem... Yes, the fields of France and Belgium are filled with blood from WWI, not to mention everything that happened in WWII...
ReplyDeleteque vontade de ir para esse lugar agora...um mês de "retiro espiritual zen":))
