Intimate with Flowers & Nature; Daffodil Embrace

Let children walk with nature, let them see the beautiful blendings and communions of death and life, their joyous inseparable unity, as taught in woods and meadows, plains and mountains and streams of our blessed star, and they will learn that death is stingless indeed, and as beautiful as life, and that the grave has no victory, for it never fights. All is divine harmony. ~John Muir Man's bond with nature, It is so missing in society today. We long for a simpler life and yet we continue to make it more and more complicated. Tethering ourselves to multiple electronic devices. Umbilical cords that numb and dumb us even more....

Intimate With Flowers & Nature....

“Now here is my secret, very simply: you can only see things clearly with your heart. What is essential is invisible to the eye.” ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

Image: Beach Serenity. February when most people think of warm, sunny beaches in exotic places like Hawaii or the Caribbean, Enjoyed an isolation, peace and solitude here you never would experience in the high summer months

Image: Divine Wind. Warm winds,golden sunset and roaring waves...truly a "Divine Wind"

Image: Light at the End Of The Tunnel. All was very cloudy and quiet, no winds, and occasional gull calling and gentle lapping of the ocean on the rocks below. For a brief moment the sun peeks out subtle golden rays from the canopy of clouds

Image: Headed to Sea. I enjoy my coffee and the fabulous sunrise as the lobsterman heads out to sea in early morning. What is he thinking?

Intimate With Flowers & Nature; " Flower Power"

I often wonder what's going on down there, in the idyllic world of flowers. Unlike insects that we see moving around collecting, resting, hunting and fighting. The flower seems unflinching and frozen in time. But any gardener knows it is a battle....a war against predator insects, other plants and weeds battling for the same ground and nutrients. They often use clever disguises, colors and scents designed to draw in pollinators, and sometimes prey.....

Ice As Art; Return to the Sea

My newest in the "Ice As Art" Series; Entitled; "Return to the Sea" A celebration of the fact that all of us originated from the vastness and chemistry of the oceans. And beyond that we trace our dna origins through the widest expanses of the universe. That's why when we look up at the stars or deep into the oceans blue...we see a little bit of me and you...

Autumn On The Lake

The sun warms his face and hands on a golden, tranquil, autumn afternoon as he slips along the edge of this placid lake. At first the lake looks much like it did last year, and the year before. The curves of the mountains,the distinctive trees, craggy stumps, the blackened rocks, their silhouettes he watches for, and recognizes; like an old friend. And more so on days, when he blindly feels his way along in the early morning fog, or at dusk in the waning sunlight. Eyes always groping for a familiar friend to guide him home. But he soon realizes that something is different this year. Perhaps it is the path of the sun, casting different shadows and creating different colors? Maybe, it's the melancholy he felt at departure of the loons or the ducks? Or maybe it's the unusual weather we all have been talking about? No, he reflects and decides in passing; that much here looks the same as it did five, ten or twenty years ago when he first came here. So alive then and looking ahead, with eager young eyes. He knows now that he looks now through the eyes of a man who is another year older. A man who is one year closer to his final journey down this familiar lake. A final journey when he will be one with, and in an eternal embrace, with all that is around him.
