I Know Someone
by Mary Oliver
I know someone who kisses the way
a flower opens, but more rapidly.
Flowers are sweet. They have
short, beatific lives. They offer
much pleasure. There is
nothing in the world that can be said
against them.
Sad, isn’t it, that all they can kiss
is the air.
Yes, yes! We are the lucky ones.
Our friends Cyrus and Rachel worked here, married here, and have already brought their firstborn to our lavender fields. Now we want to welcome four more lucky couples here to grow their love and get married at Glendarragh in 2026. There are only two weeks left to enter this year’s Flowers & Weeds Wedding Contest—we hope you’ll join us at the farm.
Find all the details on our website and don’t forget to share with any couples you know!
