Grace of the Earth

Today's Photograph, by Khalid Hussain:
Grace of the Earth


Roses are truly magnificent flowers, always a pleasure to behold..I gave the photograph the name: Grace of the Earth.

I thought that this poem particularly suited this photograph:
If Zeus chose us a King of the flowers in his mirth,
He would call to the rose, and would royally crown it;
For the rose, ho, the rose! is the grace of the earth,
Is the light of the plants that are growing upon it! 
By Sappho

The whole poem can be found here.
