Rose petals of deep scarlet, soft enough to carry a thousand unspoken words.

Rose petals of deep scarlet, soft enough to carry a thousand unspoken words.

Tender as two hands meeting
Soft, wild, warm...

From 9 am to noon…..
I love the French term “épanouissement” - it means an opening up, an unfolding, a flourishing, a blossoming - and can be applied both to plants and to humans #flowers #flourishing #wonder #spring

A sky flower in mid-bloom, as if sending kindness farther than it stands.

Sharing happiness is an art
It travels farther than we ever could…

It always amazes me how much flowers can open and close their petals under the influence of the sun. Actually, aren’t plants simply astonishing? #flowers #plants #crocus” #nature

Rumi said, There is no proof of the soul.
But isn't the return of spring and how it
springs up in our hearts a pretty good hint?

This pattern, this “branching” pattern, we can see in so many places in the world, from trees to rivers, to our circulatory system and our lungs…and, and, and…. #nature #patterns

I think it’s Spring around here. Out in the garden in my t-shirt yesterday and spotted the sunlight pouring through this daffodil #Spring #gardens #flowers

Combining means of protection and dispersion….encouraging others to keep their distance and/or attaching on and not letting go.
Isn’t #Nature astonishing?

The last few days have been dry, even sunny, and temperatures up to 18 degrees but the flood waters in the worst hit areas are going down very very slowly. #CharenteMaritime #photography #trees

What is it about we humans and the desire to play? Isn’t it amazing that games command such attention and generate such enthusiasm? It’s infectious! And surely we are the only species to organise and commit such resources to play events.
Surely, the need to play is deep in our souls

Large stones rest by two conifer trees. There is an unidentfial lake behind the trees.

illuminated by a winter beam
cascading light glows within the dark shadows of the forest lighting limbs & hanging moss
a still moment that passed quickly

Our old concrete path is full of cracks and holes. Even at this time of year plants are able to make the most of them.
Plants are the masters of opportunity and adaptability.
They rarely seem to need “perfect” conditions to thrive.

Hmm - don’t know. It happens after lots of rain so I don’t know if it’s a mineral washed from the soil or something from the algae.
