‘Pink. Pretty,’ before I knew any other words.” Joni Mitchell

I have a Bird in spring
Which for myself doth sing –
The spring decoys.
And as the summer nears –
And as the Rose appears,
Robin is gone.
Yet do I not repine
Knowing that Bird of mine
Though flown –
Learneth beyond the sea
Melody new for me
And will return.
“Nature’s great masterpiece, an elephant; the only harmless great thing.” John Donne
“Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.” Pablo Picasso
A sensitive plant in a garden grew,
And the young winds fed it with silver dew,
And it opened its fan-like leaves to the light,
and closed them beneath the kisses of night.
“It is the month of June,
The month of leaves and roses,
When pleasant sights salute the eyes,
And pleasant scents the noses.”
I know well
that the June rains…
Just fall.
“Photography is a love affair with life.” – Burk Uzzle
It’s time to propose checking out Leanne Cole’s blog later on today to view this week’s monochrome photos that she’s wedded together for everyone. Every week… I do.
