Drowning in sights and sweet scents
Wondrous indulgence

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

those kinds of floods I like, the aroma kind...
I am using google chrome now, I was having trouble leaving comments and seeing your beautiful photo's in the past, you have an amazing blog of pics with words...
love the line "wonderous indulgence"
perfect blend of words
aahh...yes! the lusciousness of Spring!
Superb photo - your haiku does it justice. It is somehow indulgent too, I don't understand why.
Would love to drown in this flood, such wondrous pretty!!
How comforting it is to know that half the world is experiencing the glories of Spring, while we are plunging towards winter. And I'm not being sarcastic!
Beautiful words and a stunning photo!
Beautiful picture & haiku!
You have such a wonderful talent for melding your beautiful words with photos. This particular haiku and photo is glorious.
Nice take on the word flood. Thanks for your kind comments!
Lovely words and images. Loved it!

It's wonderful, delicate and soft.
lovely image and so too the words to go with it. the photo says "spring and rebirth" beautifully. I love that we live on opposite sides of the planet and I get to experience two seasons at the same time! happy day to you Gemma.
Great haiku!
Wondrous indulgence indeed.
A lovely haiku.
Beautiful, lovely light into your shot ;))
Ah. Spring. Australia of course. I am in the last throes of summer in Spain. Still the sun beats down. And will continue to be warm right through to Christmas. Your midsummer.
The flood of spring's beauty is about the only one that it's safe--and satisfying--to indulge in.
Floods here and here and here
love it!
if only i could find such spring beauty over here. :)
a lovely take on the theme!
i wouldn't mind a flood of that petals i think :)
