Roses in our little terrace garden

"The Earth Laughs in Flowers."
-  Ralph Waldo Emerson  

I've been keeping up with the nearby Monument, AZ Fire, and yesterday, found a desire to sit quietly, enjoy the roses in bloom, birds chirping, and for a bit as winds quieted, a peaceful blue sky instead of the smoky gray we've been seeing.

Here are some of the little rose beauties on our front terrace.
