Saturday Snapshot-Flowering UK

Hello everyone! It's Saturday- and by now, you should all know what that means! It's time for another Saturday Snapshot post! Melinda hosts this meme every week, and thanks to her, today I'll be sharing some more pictures of my family trip to UK in 2009.

Enjoy these pictures of flora in UK:
This is definitely my favourite picture!



Isn't this the most quaint cottage you've ever seen?




These little details on the streets add so much to a city!

Enjoy your weekend, and let me know in the comments whether you've visited UK and which picture is your favourite from the four above!

      Unfortunately, this trip is from 8 years ago, so I don't remember! Sorry!

      Thanks for stopping by, Jess.

    Lovely photos of flowers! The first picture is my favorite, too, but I enjoyed them all. Love that ornate thatched roof.

      Who ever knew that thatched roofs could be decorative?

    I'm trying to work out where you were in the UK. Bath?? Just a guess.

    Lovely photos - where were you in the UK? I'm curious what the building is in your first photo - it's pretty amazing! I have been to London several time but haven't seen much else in the UK - just Salisbury and Stonehenge - and those when I was 16! I would love to go for a longer visit and get to see more of the country.

    That tree at the bottom is beautiful! I love all of your photos. I wish some day I could get to Europe. It is my next out of the country goal, although I want to go to Ireland for sure. :-)

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

I cannot remember my mother by Rabindranath Tagore

 The poem has been titled " I cannot remember my mother". It attracted me for some reason, for I thought that surely, a poem couldn't be completely empty. There had to be some form of nostalgia, or memory in a poem about no remembrance.  I realized after reading it, that I was right. In fact, the poem's title can be considered an oxymoron. However, the extent to which this poem is nostalgic, the amount of tiny details in this poem, wow. But I don't suppose Tagore was a Literature Nobel Laureate for nothing. This poem has sensitized its audience to the poet's colossal loss, though the poet ,it seems,has made no effort to do so. There is nothing superfluous about his writing, and the poem seems like a true expression of his love for his mother. It talks about how his mother managed to leave her presence on everything before she passed away, and how those little memories of his,form an incomplete memory of his mother.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place.
