they call us pixie cups
we are tiny
and live in the sylvan land
we grow in fanciful shapes
i have been enjoying the tiny realm of
fungi and lichen
they grow on trees
in wonderful colors
on rocks
even the black and gray speckles are lichen!
I look forward to getting to know them better

You live in a magical place.

ReplyDeleteSuch beauty... it's everywhere... in the long-view and close-up... if we only pause to notice. <3
ReplyDeleteOH Tammie! These are such beautiful captures... your photos breathe magic into my soul.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder they are called Pixie Cups! They look like they belong in the world of the fairies... but then again, I think maybe we DO live in the world of the fairies and we just forget to notice! Have a lovely holiday, Tammie!
