"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.

A macro photo of a peach colored dahlia flower. The morning dew glitters in the sun like diamonds on a crown. Mad Girl's Love Song By Sylvia Plath "I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again. (I think I made you up inside my head.) The stars go waltzing out in blue and red, And arbitrary blackness gallops in: I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead. I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane. (I think I made you up inside my head.) God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade: Exit seraphim and Satan's men: I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead. I fancied you'd return the way you said, But I grow old and I forget your name. (I think I made you up inside my head.) I should have loved a thunderbird instead; At least when spring comes they roar back again. I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead. (I think I made you up inside my head.)"

"Loss it seems, is the worst kind of sorrow

Black and white macro photo of a dalia flower. The morning dew sparkles like diamonds in the sun of the morning. Accompanied by a stanza from this poem by Michael Ernst called "Loss of..." Loss it seems, is the worst kind of sorrow Loss of dreams, the dreams of tomorrow Loss of the moments you two should have shared Loss of opportunities to show her you cared Loss of the memories you both could have created Loss of the romance once intense as you dated Loss of a kiss, caress, or embrace Loss of that special feeling no one else can replace Loss of a look, the twinkle in her eye Loss of the touch as you pass each other by Loss of a future, from a past of regret Loss of a last chance, how many do you get Loss of a promise you never meant to break Loss of two hearts that forever will ache

"Bereft I was—of what I knew not
Too young that any should suspect"~Emily Dickinson (Poem in alt)

A golden marigold flower shines in the morning sun. Mourning the loss of summer, it readies itself for the long sleep. Poem by Emily Dickinson titled "A Loss Of Something Ever Felt I" A loss of something ever felt I— The first that I could recollect Bereft I was—of what I knew not Too young that any should suspect A Mourner walked among the children I notwithstanding went about As one bemoaning a Dominion Itself the only Prince cast out— Elder, Today, a session wiser And fainter, too, as Wiseness is— I find myself still softly searching For my Delinguent Palaces— And a Suspicion, like a Finger Touches my Forehead now and then That I am looking oppositely For the site of the Kingdom of Heaven—

This striking black and white photograph captures an intimate, close-up portrait of an adult mute swan (Cygnus olor) in the water. The image is tightly framed, focusing almost entirely on the swan's head, neck, and part of its back, set against a dark, low-key background that creates a stark, dramatic contrast. The swan is angled towards the camera in a near head-on perspective, its long, graceful neck curved slightly downwards and to the right in an 'S' shape. The highly detailed plumage appears pure white, rendered in various shades of grey, and its feathers, especially on the head, are wet, adorned with numerous small water droplets that catch the light and add significant texture and realism to the image. A defining feature is the swan's prominent beak, although the photo is monochrome, the natural colours are implied by the distinct shapes and tonal variations: the central part of the bill is lighter grey (implying the natural orange), contrasting with the solid black (dark grey) facial mask that extends to a point in front of the eyes. A noticeable black, fleshy knob sits at the base of the upper mandible, a characteristic of the species and often larger in males (cobs). The detail of the beak's serrated edges is visible. The lighting is directional, from above and the front, which highlights the textures of the feathers and the curve of the neck while casting deep shadows that contribute to the overall mood of elegance and serenity. The large feathered back of the swan fills the left portion of the frame, showing soft, smooth curves that contrast with the more textured head. The overall effect is a powerful, elegant animal portrait that emphasises form, texture, and light rather than colour, abstracting the subject from reality.

"Arise from their graves, and aspire

Infrared black and white photo of a sunflower. Seeing nature's patterns up close never ceases to amaze me. Accompanied by a poem by William Blake called "Ah Sunflower" Ah Sunflower, weary of time, Who countest the steps of the sun; Seeking after that sweet golden clime Where the traveller's journey is done; Where the Youth pined away with desire, And the pale virgin shrouded in snow, Arise from their graves, and aspire Where my Sunflower wishes to go!

I have always loved the Japanese Garden at the Huntington Library botanical garden in San Marino, California

#EastCoastKin #BloomScrolling #HuntingtonLibraryGarden #JapaneseGarden
An overview of the Japanese Garden in the Huntington Library Botanical Garden in San Marino/Pasadena, California. In the foreground is a concrete pagoda surrounded by bushes and flowers. There are green lawns, weeping willow trees and manicured trees/bushes into shapes. Further in the background is a pond and arched wooden bridge. People are walking through the garden, and the sky is blue.

A dahlia flower faces the morning sun like the lightbringer standing up for freedom. The Morningstar Accompanied by the poem called "To Lucifer" Lend your flame to the spirit, glowing gloom; Sighing the head rises into midnight, At the greening spring hill; where before A gentle lamb bled, endured the deepest Pain; but the dark one follows the shadow Of evil, or he lifts the moist wings To the golden disk of the sun and a sound of bells Convulses his pain-torn breast, Wild hope; the sinisterness of flaming fall. by: Georg Trakl

"for into your world, I shall not go,
only to wilt and have no soul.
Whisper you love, and let that whisper"~Ronald S (Poem in ALT)

A coneflower after a season of pollenators and the public. Wilted and shedding its petals. It looks tired. But it is present. With a poem called Wildflower Today in the meadow, I saw you as you were picking wildflowers. Your beauty I saw as you knelt and gave me a gentle touch. Your kiss was as cool as the summer rains, your warmth I felt as you placed me at your breast, warmth as if the morning sun. Here in the meadow, from the soil of the earth, I must remain, for into your world, I shall not go, only to wilt and have no soul. Whisper you love, and let that whisper lay on my petals. With this, I shall endure and return to see your beauty and feel your gentleness once more. by: Ronald Strickland

A yellow mrigaold stares staright at my lens. Like looking into the sun. Seeing secrets only the shy knows. Included poem From sun to Sun From sun to sun I will run With great energy and elan, I have a secret plan Known to none, But in the farthest land I will meet a caravan, There I will find a true and perfect companion, He will surely know my plan.
