A Magical and Blessed Visit
Ruby Throated Hummingbirds visited, amused, and entertained us for about a week. We felt most fortunate to be a stop on their journey.

In all places, then, and in all seasons,
Flowers expand their light and soul-like wings,
Teaching us, by most persuasive reasons,
How akin they are to human things.

Passion Flower
The Passion Flower is so intoxicatingly beautiful. The delight of “seeing” each flower is the sweetest treasure, and it’s scent is nothing but divinity. The symbolism and history of this flower only adds to its allure, without a doubt my absolute favorite.
Death is not extinguishing the light; it is putting out the lamp because dawn has come.

Romance, Sunsets, and the Passage of Time
Tonight’s sunset…. Intensifying and changing moment by moment, more complicated, more breathtaking, and more intoxicating, all with passage of time.
Tonight’s sunset made me think of one of my favorite poets and poems…
Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s “How Do I Love Thee”
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…..
I love thee to the level of everyday’s
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
…………….. I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! — and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
Savoring every sunset!
