    Today’s Shot 160

    Timeless

    Black-Eyed Susan
    Summer Blooms

    What are the best memories made of? Is it campfires and s’mores? What about that fishing trip or family vacation to the beach. Topping root beer with vanilla ice cream and watching the foam rise. Sitting quietly within nature’s gallery for a spell? Screaming and laughing down a steep ride at an amusement park. Grandma’s blackberry pie – and fried chicken. Waking up to the smell of fresh-brewed coffee and sizzling bacon…

    What do all of these things have in common?

    None of these things include checking off our to-do list, or increasing our income and refining our career. There are no business suits or board meetings. No deadlines or status checks.

    I think what all these things have in common is: a joyful leisure. It is all of our senses being in the present moment. It’s the fragrances, laughter, connections, and tastes. It’s watching in quietness – or being surrounded by familiar voices and faces. It’s in the keeping of our traditions and special moments shared. It’s hugs.

    These memories are timeless!

    What is one timeless thing that I can do today?

    Be well my friends!

    Yet, my soul has elbow room

    A garden with space

    “Now my soul has elbow room.”

    -William Shakespeare


    What are my freedoms at home?

    Love is possible only with freedom.

    I am allowed to take the space I need.

    Be well my friends!

    A Mindful Moment

    Mass of small purple bell fliwers

    Thoughtful, we contemplate beauty.

    We notice and are strengthened.

    Here, we are inspired by her splendor.

    The student and the teacher –

    Hold quiet space together

    What lessons will nature teach me today?

    Be well my friends ❤️

    Making Art from photos

    I didn’t like the original photo as it wasn’t as clear as I wanted, but I found it made great art instead 🖼

    Have a safe and good weekend!

    Leaves and Buried Marbles

    I know there’s only one of each but, “Leaves and Buried Marbles” sounded better to me than, “leaf and marble”. Hmmm, 🤔


    Seagull is calling

    With

    Treasure hunter’s practiced eye

    And

    Buried gifts are found

    Fly

    In Memory

    If there ever was a soul

    Meant to spread her wings and fly

    This one, I think –

    Would touch the sky.

    Echinacea

    Cee’s Flower of the Day – FOTD


    Echinacea, or Purple Coneflower, is a genus of herbaceous flowering plants in the daisy family.

    Echinacea has commonly been used for colds, respiratory infections, bronchitis, and for boosting the immune system.


    Tautogram

    I saw this form of poetry on Borden’s Blather and thought I would try it. “Tauto” means “the same” and “gramma” means “letter”. In other words, all words in the poem begin with the same letter…

    ~

    Echinacea examines each enquiry

    Every exhale emits evidence

    Enters, explained emittance

    Expelling event emerges

    Efflorescent elixir

    Ensuing epidemic’s end


    Happy weekend to everyone, be safe and well!
