Blossoms praying while they fall...
Blossoms praying while they fall... there's nothing as sweet as falling for a little girl in her gardenous world, she loves the sight of us sprawling all over the lawn, pink, white and yellow, some of us pierced through the heart by a stem so green, and eventually set free by the wind, to take the...

We're just not whole without the gifts of God...
Each a Part of All...There's a part o' the sun in an apple... There's part o' the moon in a rose; there's a part o' the flaming Pleiades In every leaf that grows. Out of the vast comes nearness; For the God whose love we sing Sends a little of His heaven To every living thing. by Augustus Wright...

Waiting on Love to Come...
Sometimes we wait too long for love taking on the personality of a moth...forevermore. Here I am like every other flower in the garden drinking in the pearled dew, and hour after hour a female willow trembles knowingly at our pain, a swan sings close by, both of us living by breath alone, Sometimes...
