Head on fire

 

or is this purple hair on a cyclops?   You choose.  I'm with you on this.  

Why do extremely large tires fascinate me.

Or very tall trees?  Very tall people, too.

 

A thistle in the sun

 Tonight, let's have pasta and carciofi.  I'll pick some basil.  You get the rosemary.  Let's rendezvous at 6.  

Frozen in time --

labyrinth-like fingerprint.  Much to think about as the upright oaks in the field across the way spill shadows like runes.  

 

A working angle

                                                         

                                   Conversing with large machinery, sky calibrates the angle. 

                                      Have you noticed, how sky makes space for every tree  

                                                                             and shadow?  

Unexpected

I have a soft-spot for gladioli.  One of the most sensually-abundant flowers.  Their petals, a hue of flamboyance.  Why are gladioli so frequently part of a funeral arrangement?  Life & death, equal partners.  So, what's the backstory on these gladioli?  A month or so ago several green stalks popped up in a patch of dirt in our  your patio.  I decided to see what nature would offer.  Looks like we will have an abundant harvest of gladioli.  Whether they will all be this delightfully-shocking pink/purple, is a question for time's unraveling.  Stay tuned.  I am.  
 

Language, subtle and muted

eloquently communicates. Isn't all language visual?
