mmm ... wild blue phlox or wild sweet williams ...

the images i have shared this week are but a drop in the sea

of the glory mother nature delivers to us

every moment of the day ...


lupins love rain droplets!

each and every one a miracle in itself ...


spirea shrub

some give forth buds that are as sweet as their flower ...


rhubarb

some are stunning ~ even when they are bolting!


and when the rains subsided this week for an evening ...

even the clouds got playful!

:::

i am so genuinely grateful for the existence of all that graces us ...

but i am getting fairly fearful of humankind taking it all away.

do the destructive actions towards our planet make you sad? mad? overwhelmed?

my dear friend gigi is seeking balance

and looking for your thoughts ...

go gently, speak kindly ~
