What if you slept? And what if, in your sleep you dreamed? And what if, in your dream, you went to heaven and there plucked a strange and beautiful flower? And what if, when you awoke, you had the flower in your hand. ~Samuel Taylor Coleridge
What beautiful and thought-provoking words! I wonder if perhaps that doesn’t happen at some points in our lives, when we find ourselves in the midst of some unexpected beauty?
yes–harmony! now I know what’s behind the blue door!
And what if your mother found this and you gave the flower to her and she loved you even more than she usually does, if that’s possible? You know I love the photo. The quote fits it well.
We all wonder at the thought of heaven, don’t we?
Oh, I love the combination you have there between the photo (which is beautiful!) and the quote. Isn’t it such fun to find the perfect match!
They are a perfect match
I’d deny it. *smile*
The quote and the photo … scare me.
I love your photographs – your eye is a window onto worlds I love to explore and rest in, sometimes all the more if I am not sure what it IS – the texture, the light and shadow, the richness of color… a presence that I am drawn to…
My soul would be better off to visit your space much more often!!
blessings and peace, Molly,

aw…………………………………Wow!
I love that photo. It is Mary, isn’t it?
I like the curved edging on the right of the photograph.
hard and soft, stone and flower, enduring and fragile.
Stunning photo!
you ahve some really nice close shots (referring to all pictures on this page)
bravo! does it take you long to find quotes to match?
Wildcane sent me by, and I’m glad he did. Didn’t think anybody else did this sort of thing on xanga! I’m enjoying myself immensely here. From what I’ve seen so far (just a few pages) I liked your Feb. 27th photo best. A beautiful, crisp capture of spring striving for precedence.
I’ve read that poem! I adore that poem. I’ve held that exact poem very close to my heart for a long time.
Beautiful choice of words to accompany a spectacular photograph.
