MORNING DEW
Hibiscus greeted me this morning
Dressed in a glittering crystal veil
Gentle pearls of water
formed a gown sublime.
In reverence, with joyful heart
I drank its beauty in
Said my thanks for lifting,
Lifting my heart and spirit high.

Bringing to you the undiscovered
A welcoming space for resistance to the forces of oppression and hegemony.
Photos, art, and a little bit of LIT.
as opposed to a “not thinking chitalia”
Art, health, civilizations, photography, nature, books, recipes, etc.
Taking the journey, bumps and all
Recognizing & appreciating our oneness with Nature
Never Grow Old
The World According to Siri and Selma
what you see, it's up on you!
Words are art on paper, and for me they are the seeds of my soul.

Brad, your comment is so beautiful, thank you. It is what I felt, there is so much beauty and love
in the world but often hidden by the dark. I hope we all see more and more every day.

That is wonderful, thank you, Rebecca, I am so happy you find you could meditate to this. It is how this little poem and photo came about. I go out in the garden early and just take a flower in, this time Hibiscus.
Then walk around and greet the others ( unless it pours down). 😊.

Wow! Miriam, what a greeting for you in the morning and we are blessed you’ve shared this precious moment with us! A beautiful poem that shines with joy … the personification of the hibiscus works a treat, and I love the line, ‘Dressed in a glittering crystal veil’. Just so from your photo! I hope it keeps flowering for many weeks yet, lifting your heart and spirit! xx

That’s lovely Miriam.
I do love the morning dew, it makes everything glisten.
It’s also nice to go out onto the grass barefoot and to feel the damp grass underneath me. Much nicer than always wearing shoes.
