Romantic Seashells

Think upon the life of a seashell....

......its uniqueness of design, shape, color and dimension...

..... its life and occupants...

..... its petrified history...

...... each day as an amazing journey...

Wait, WE are no different.

Except that WE, you and I,  know Love, Compassion and Wisdom.

Sharing a few recent pencil, pen, watercolor sketches that have a similar feeling.

Finding Beauty

But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things.

Mary Oliver, The Sun

Have you ever seen

anything

in your life

more wonderful

than the way the sun,

every evening,

relaxed and easy,

floats toward the horizon

and into the clouds or the hills,

or the rumpled sea, 

and is gone_____

and how it slides again

out of the blackness,

every morning,

on the other side of the world,

like a red flower

streaming upward on its heavenly toils,

say, on a morning in early summer.....

such wild love

do you think there is anywhere, in any language

a word billowing enough

for the pleasure

that fills you, 

as the sun

reaches out,

as it warms you......

Finding love through the eloquence of a poet's words and nature photography.

May this give a moment's pause to your day.
