The Purples Ones

I feel touched,

awakened,

tender and true.

I see you.

I see we

are all one in this world,

so let us be

the courageous ones,

rising high

bringing compassion

into a purple sky.

Having awareness,

caring in ways

to change

your fear with my love,

to change

their fear with our love,

to simple be

a courageous community.

Breathe softly.

You will hear the call.

Bring your Gifts for all.

Glorious Morning Glory

I see your beauty

greeting me,

I adore this colour

inspiring me.

 

I know you usually bloom 

within the many,

but here in my garden

you, sweet flower,

are the only one

to glow before the rising sun.

 

You sleep in the afternoon,

but I wonder

if you will sight

 the super-blue blood-moon

in the southern sky tonight.

as meaning

Pleased with beautiful things,

it is itself beautiful.'

Seeds of Light

When in the stillness

all is still

until

any movement enters.

Maybe it is a breeze

over the seas of thought,

a wind comes up

over the shifting sands,

someone speaks of other lands,

a ripple widens in a pond,

we wonder do we still belong?

Is this the day

our life may change,

will we re-arrange?

What is there

coming closer,

that may make everything

different?

We are all one

in different places

and different spaces,

different lands

and changing plans.

But still

we are the Earth Community,

in together.

With an open and whole-heart

we can all start

to catch the soft breeze

and spread our healing seeds.

Let us

be like golden dandelions

sharing our Seeds of Light

Chicory Mystery

Hello Chicory.

What a hot day it is

and I see you blooming

two new flowers on the same old stem,

that two days ago I pictured here

the blooms now invisible........then,

so today I am intrigued

you have created further mystery,

now, 14 petals to each flower,

do you add them by the hour????

Every herb book I do browse,

gives a clue

you

are unusual.

Goodness me,

I will see

what tomorrows bloom

will show me.

 - ???? -

This is a full resolution, uncropped photo

taken this morning. 

It shows the smaller bloom

 lower on the stem

of the same one plant.

14 petals on this flower too.

I ask You?

 

Invisibility

Chicory, is it true,

you bring resilience

and invisibility too.

I found you by the roadside,

I loved your colour blue,

your petals differ on some flowers

which kept me counting

from bloom to bloom

why one or two had left the room?

As afternoon comes

you change and leave,

wither on the stalk,

disappear, to come again

when.

- ???? - 

4 separate flowers,

carrying 3 differently numbered petals:

so it seems 13 is true,

but one or two

bloomed with 11 or 12.

 Nature has her mysteries.
