Leaf inspired haiku


It is very quiet
Today is diminishing
Visiting cat yawns

Winter picture after yoga


From Sylvia Plath's poem "Tulips"":

"... I didn't want any flowers, I only wanted
To lie with my hands turned up and be utterly empty.
How free it is, you have no idea how free..."

In a hurry

I wish I could have my professional website up and running SOON!
Anyway, here is a flower. Let's breathe...

Edible yellow in the afternoon sun


Plant photography is really therapeutic. It is a full on mindfulness exercise.

I have given up

I have relented... and will start instagramming soon. I have a feeling about the Insta business though, and that feeling is that when I finally start putting my pictures in the Instagram, it will be old fashioned and there will be a new fad, and then I have to think about it for a few years whilst some people will nudge and poke me to do that fad, and so the cycle continues etc etc. 

When I started blogging in the beginning of the Naughties, I was amongst the first I think. Now that I don't hang about web so much anymore, I am reluctant to learn new things and be exposed. But, as said, I have relented... Insta could be fun. 

I took a few pictures yesterday. Like this one here. The plant was given to me by my daughter a while back. It keeps giving one faint purple flower at a time.

Am I purple that climbs up a bush?

I remembered this blog tonight because someone else was talking about blogging tonight, and not liking it. I don't know if I like it. I suppose I do. I like writing although I rarely write anymore. I remember when I still liked it a lot. That was in the early naughties. I was very much into it, the whole blogging thing, until I ended up being mentioned in an article, and I stopped. A friend recently said I HAVE to be on Instagram. I tried to say that I DON'T have to because there is nothing that I would gain from it. You only HAVE to be there if you have a business. She has one. I don't. The day might arrive though. 

These flowers are climbing a bush. That's the way!
