Paris: A Perfect Flower, in a Random Alleyway

I'm just back from Paris.

Paris, I think, is a perfect flower, in a random alleyway.

We were waiting for our restaurant to open. We walked through the alleyway next to the restaurant while we waited. 

There was heart graffiti all along the walls of the alley.


Suddenly I saw it. A perfect flower. In a random alleyway.


Paris is a perfect flower in a random alleyway. There is beauty to be found everywhere in Paris, even in unexpected spots.

    I went once to Paris and the yearning to go again hasn't gone away.

    I love the art work in that alley! I'll be in Paris for a couple days this summer and will pay more attention to murals.

    What a perfect camellia! It is truly one of the loveliest plants. J'adore the graffiti, too! :)

    Nice shots. No telling what you're going to find, and where.

    I've never been to Europe, but I fell in love with that rose. It looks like (although I'm no expert) a heirloom variety, and it is so perfect!

    That graffiti caught my attention amidst all the links we had received for #WordlessWednesday.

    Thanks for sharing Deb. Never been to Paris, but heard way too many good things. The only reason I would go to Paris is to visit Shakespeare and Company, the book store.

    That's a miracle, usually Paris is rather dirty and full of weeds !

    So many reasons to visit Paris, and yet, I haven't been there. Waiting for the right time, I guess! But, one thing you said caught my attention. You said—"Paris is a perfect flower in a random alleyway. There is beauty to be found everywhere in Paris, even in unexpected spots." That, to me, is the essence of Paris. Now, I know, I cannot defer my visit any more. Thanks for sharing this beautiful post and for linking up with us for the #ww bloghop.
    Wish you a wonderful week ahead, Deb!

    Cheers
