Fairy Slipper Day ~ Calypso Orchid

be still my heart

how can anyone, like me

have a favorite flower?

flowers are sweet charming beings

each and every one

hiking through the woods today

I found more tiny wild fairy slipper orchids 
than i have ever seen in one walk!

they had me on my knees over and over

taking in their beauty

blending with their presence

finding joy in life

Meeting Places

edges
horizons
shorelines
of life
sometimes it is the places
places between here and there
earth and air
water and earth
tree and land
cloud and sky
you and me
where we meet
a place of spirit and movement

stillness and contrast
color and texture
light and shadow

to be present in these meeting places

is to hold hands with the holy

St. Mary Lake, Montana

 

air

wind

dancing clouds

water 

earth

spirit abounds

rest

open 

breathe

remember who you are

a bountiful soul

a beautiful star

Many Glacier, Montana

it was a windy day

swept all the dust away

air and light

vibrant

shooting into the sun is not favorable

still i thought to share this wild beauty with you:

this land begs to be walked into

like a beautiful invitation

Went Camping ~

winds ferocious breath

stirred the clouds dramatic

sunset uplifting

~

looking east:

looking west:

color ripening:

Mystique of the Pasque Flower

journeyed east of the Rocky Mountains

to find your lovely blooms

found you thriving in a WINDY terrain

dancing wildly with the land

thank you for your beauty

New Life

life

springing into growth

full of future promises

beauty in the tiny details

like magical occurances

endlessly

~

 

flowers so small

my eyes can barely tell what i am looking at

but i do know it is beauty

Lovely day to you~
