Find one beautiful thing every day and take a photo of it.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Beauty Day 95 Ready, Begin

 

spring crouches in the wings

wound tightly as a nearly pouncing cat

like a Broadway musical

at the moment the curtains lift

props set

the stage arranged

actors’ lungs filled

first syllable on countdown

score practised

choreography complete

instruments tuned

musicians in posture

ready

for the sudden rise

and strong descent

of the conductor’s magic wand

The show begins!

greens and pinks

purples, yellow

I see it all

in these living buds

silently screaming

all over town–

spring has almost sprung

we only need that one sunny

warm day

for all to be transformed

from winter’s muted tones

of deafening gray

to spring’s essential touch

 bright cacophony

of bursting sound

a healthful baby’s

chubby flush
