Late Bloomers
September 12, 2012 
What is it about these late bloomers...these ones that come into their full flower so far into this too short season?
Somehow - I carry a soft spot for those who are slow to arrive...who blossom and bloom later in life. For those who find their rhythm..their rhyme and sound their voice - long after most others have.
What is it about these beauties? These ones who live their summers in shadow..and emerge in the autumn so full and bright?
Just maybe..is it possible...? Is it possible that just maybe? That it's me I see....?

It could be. It's what I'm hoping for myself.
I could quite possibly be, but what a wonderful thing to see!
xo.
To be honest, this happens to a LOT of us in the gay community, Marcie, so I totally understand!!!
very nice thought and metaphor
I love this...as a late bloomer, this has special meaning for me! Beautiful, both image and words.
Confident and assured, they look.
maybe so! :-)
well, that maybe the case.. ;)
I love late-blooming. So much to look forward to.
A wonderful soft mood you created here Marcie...
Oh, yes - I have a definite soft spot for the "late bloomers" - being one myself. Thank you for tribute to those of us who come into our own late in the game.
Love the softness of it... very beautiful!

Hi there :) Gorgeous photo ♥ I'm visiting from FAF and I'm happy to have found your blog! Very interesting.
Interesting inward-looking musings. Better late than never!
They are delightful to see.
There is a time for everything . . . beautiful Marcie.
As a late bloomer myself, I say Yay!!!
Just when we need them!
Such a lovely capture of these late bloomers. Thank you for sharing them with Flower Art Friday! ♥
That describes me perfectly.
