Art Flowers, Friday July 21, 2023. Sun Is Out. Where Are The Popies? Lots Of Flowers Died In The Rains. Some Are Hanging In There. A Challenge To My Creativity

by Jon Katz

The sun is back.

I did my walk-a-round yesterday.

There is a lot of destruction in my garden beds; so much heavy rain is taking its toll. And so much beauty.

The challenge was capturing the beauty of these flowers in life and death. It will be exciting to see who comes back and who can’t. We’re going to see some theater tonight in Dorset, Vermont. I’m excited. I’ve got to write about my Meditation Class at the Mansion yesterday; it was quite remarkable—lots of chores.

I hope your day is comfortable, dry (maybe wet), and peaceful. Mine is looking good. There are no flood of heat warnings here for the first time in a long time.

Hopefully, the pictures will brighten the mornings of the beleaguered.  Come and see. There’s at least one smile in here somewhere.

Signs of life returning.

 

The begonias fight back.

 

The pink always calls out to me.

 

Community of flowers.

One of Maria’s Lillie’s just exploded.
