Sorry, I'm two days late by uploading this Lathyrus, my friend Dana. I hope you do not mind? Here's a poem for your 71st birthday, with my wishes for you. It does not rhyme in the English translation, hence I place it first in Dutch wording. And underneath it the English translation, as well as I have the possibilities to do this right. Also, I hope the picture is well chosen at the poem, haha, or vice versa? ~~~~~~~~ Een kleurrijk leven is aan ons gegeven ook met wat tranen in het dal toch behoren ook deze druppels bij een soort van bevrijding die ons leven bemoedigen zal. Voor onze vriend hier voor velen welke zo'n mooie galerij met ons wil delen hoop ik op een steeds mooier gekleurd welbevinden waarin de jaren niet tellen en met bijzondere en warme metgezellen. Alle liefs voor Dana welke ik in vele opzichten zeer waardeer. ~~~~~~~~ A colorful life has been given to us also with some tears in the valley but still includes these drops at a kind of liberation that will be encourage our lives. For our friend here for many such kind to share his beautiful gallery I hope for him a continuation of a even more beautiful colored wellbeing which do not count the years and with special and warm companions. All my love for Dana, which I appreciate so much, in many ways. This photo is taken in our garden, about two weeks ago. Latin name: Fabaceae, (family of). Zoom for better details. Thank you very much for your visit :)
