There is something special about today. The sunlight is carrying forth gifts of shining possibilities and promises of lighter times. This mustard grass flower, although supported by the slimmest of stalks, is perpetually waving optimistically at opportunity and is a sunny beacon much stronger than it looks. A beneficiary of the sun, it has the power to reflect the shining light, and to refract it so that it spreads in a new direction. Perhaps a ray is headed your way.
Gasp! I just saw the glimmer reflected in my honey’s eyes. I think a ray caught him!
Please come back tomorrow for a new “Weed Image of the Day” and let me know which ones you like.
We and our weeds are so much more than what we first appear to be.
I am inspired by things that grow in the ground and blow in the wind. I like to play in the dirt, especially when planting something, and can talk to trees. I like to look closely at things that at first seem small, insignificant, dried out, or contrary. Weeds may not welcome me with swollen blossoms, but the visual treasure they offer up, are well worth a look. Do you agree? I hope that these images of the oft-overlooked pest of our gardens and yards may give to you some delight, hope, or a new thought to make your daily journey just a little bit more inspired.
