Monday WRites 228


[in my mosaic today: 3 wildflowers in my unkempt lawn]


WABI-SABI
This new decade, weighted with its share of negatives blooms.
Where are love and peace, within the glooms?

We must feed ourselves doses of hope in each new day.
As transience and imperfection roar their way.

Truly delightful to admirers, Splendor of blooming wildflowers .

    "Where are love and peace, within the glooms?"

    Indeed! We reap what we plant, and hope MUST be in the mix.

    Great rhyming, Gillena, and I love the contrast of the negative blooms and the doses of hope in the wildflowers.

    We must plant and sow hope! Absolutely....and insure that it blossoms amongst the wildflowers.

    I love the flowers that bloom this early and roar with hope of spring to come. Great take on the prompt.

    Gillena - if only I could buy those doses of hope at the pharmacy … it helps to read other blogs - most people have something very inspirational to share, and that is all the medicine I need. Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!
