ReplyDeleteGorgeous image beautiful prose!
ReplyDeleteI do believe it is a peony. It was in my friends garden. It is very different from the others he had. Now I better make sure this is correct ;-}
ReplyDeleteUnusual flower, but it is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely an unusual flower. Great words, by the way.
ReplyDeleteIt is a Peony. Great lighting.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous light in your photo Tammie! And it looks like a peony, and they are so lovely. Enjoyed so much your words also. "...life the devine" - love that one.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind words while I was away. Your words are always appreciated. :)
I haven't seen this flower before. It's very pretty as is pretty your poetry.
ReplyDeleteGood week, Tammie!
We should all experience life like this! Beautiful:) You must come & visit me because I posted more photos from our visit to the Nepenthe Restaurant!
ReplyDeleteAn unusual flower with some very inspiring words .... thank you.
ReplyDeleteGreat poem. "allow," as you've stated it, is a philosophy of life, and one I very much agree with. Beautiful photo to go with it, too.
ReplyDeleteI think its peony too! But how you captured the pink in the middle draw my attention! Lovely poetry!
ReplyDeleteGreat words! And picture :)
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week!

Dear Tammie Lee,
ReplyDeleteAllowing ourselves to be the expressions of divine love is difficult....Allowing myself the joy of the beauty of your words and photography is easy....
Thank you!
Perhaps that is how the divine works...right through you!
Namaste,
Sherry

ReplyDeleteHi Tamie,
ReplyDeleteGorgeus! You say it'e a peony,jeh, perhps.Nice any way.
I enjoyed your poem and the beautiful photo of the flower.
ReplyDeleteSo many thought inspiring words. And of course, a beautiful flower. Was it dark when you took the photo?
ReplyDeleteCiel and others that have felt mystified with this photo; it grew in a friends garden. I enjoyed it inside the cabin for a while. As it began to fall apart I took it out to the porch and in the morning sunlight it captured my attention. So it has fallen petals and golden morning it light showing off its' details. Thank you for asking.
ReplyDeleteThank you all for taking in my post and for leaving heart felt words.
Tammie
Fascinating look at the peony. The poem is lovely, it reads almost like a meditation or a tarot layout. Enjoyable!
ReplyDeleteTammy Lee: your image your words your poetry..just what my heart desires..sigh
ReplyDeleteThank you for giving support while I am on my latest healing journey..come by and sit awhile on my bench and perhaps get inspired...umm..I hope that it's not occupied.. =^'^=
love and light aNNa
Your photos always completely showcase your poems - or is it the other way around? Hard to say which I enjoy more.
ReplyDeleteThe ultimate is the "intimate relationship with life and divine."
ReplyDeleteYou have a way of linking nature's life to the creator.
thanks for the visit Tammie.
This is such an amazing verse.. the words, composition are so delightful, it makes for a marvellous read.. And then, the scope, the perspective is just so huge... it is frankly overwhelming..!
ReplyDeleteOh, we have one of those in our garden! They're so yellow and beautiful!
ReplyDelete"an intimate relationship with life divine."
ReplyDeleteIs what Im lacking at the moment..
xx
What a warm and evocative take on this prompt, well done!
ReplyDeleteAll the different elements in this photo are amazing - love it!
ReplyDeleteI was going to ask you what the flower was, but I got a clue from the tags.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful poem, reflecting your connection with nature.

Energy flows in all directions but human perception is not equipped to detect and discern all of this. The ones you notice are the ones you are ready to explore more deeply at this moment. The image is fantastic, inviting visitors on a journey into the core of infinity.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poem!!! I love all the contrasts you used~ and the picture is delightfully unusual!
ReplyDeleteVery interesting looking flower which I'm pretty sure I've not seen before. Lovely :)
ReplyDeleteA great macro shot :)
ReplyDeleteThe color combination in the flower is amazing.
ReplyDeleteTammie, I liked the line "saturation
ReplyDeleteat a cellular vibration". Thank you for your heartfelt words.
Wonderful take on a difficult word. I love the bombardment of images - really striking chords with me.
