I picked my neighbor's flowers - one thing I distinctly remember being instructed not to do as a child. These peonies are so beautiful, I just couldn't pass them by. I feel a slight twinge of guilt when I turn to admire them. Surely the keepers of their garden will never notice... There were plenty of other blooms left.
Does it make it worse that I took them in the dark?
Hilarious! We sampled some fruit from our neighbor's tree the other day since some of the branches hang down in our yard...but I did feel strangely guilty doing it!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I would have been upset if you did not take them! My favorite flowers. Love you sister.
ReplyDeletemy favorite flowers! i had them on my bedside some time ago too. my room in vienna really needed some kind of nature : ) i really miss the nature : / oh and what else do i see? a drawing of a fawn!! awww! : )
ReplyDeleteI must say, it does make me feel a little bit better to know that I'm not the only one pulling these kinds of stunts!
ReplyDeleteWas the forbidden fruit all the more delicious?
I think they are mine, too - but I can never be too sure. There are many flowers that turn my head!
ReplyDeleteBlast! The drawing!! I still have not been able to find it. I really ought to do something about this. Why am I so terribly slow!? If it makes you feel any better at all, you are not the only one awaiting something from me in the mail. When I say I am a bad pen pal, I really mean I am the WORST in the entire world.
haha, your story is so recognizable and funny. Like a thief in the night. :-) A little while ago I saw a beautiful flower, I took him, and then I saw that it was part of 4 flowers in a persons garden. I felt also a bit guilty. But I adored that flower as well a lot. But afterwards I was happy I took him, because he lived for so long at my house.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers look perfect in your house. And I love the drawing, and the postcard ! They are amazing.
I think I actually think they seem even more beautiful simply because I stole them!
ReplyDeleteI have been collecting pretty postcards lately. The one pictured is one of my most recent finds. I know that I should send them to people but I am so tempted to keep them for myself!
