Nature bathes our senses in reds, pinks, purples, and greens ~ all the colors of the rainbow offered up with tantalizing tastes and textures, aromatic fragrances, and soothing sounds that speak to our spirit, like the cry of a gull above the crash of the waves.
Primary shades demonstrate both restraint and zeal ~ an unparalleled zest for living:
* Red geraniums, strawberries, tomatoes, and cardinals
* Yellow daisies, sunflowers, lemons, and bananas
* Bluebirds, blueberries, and cloud streaked skies
Secondary shades add nuance to nature’s palette, drawing us outward and inward simultaneously:
* Fragrant oranges bursting with flavor tickle our taste buds
* Green grasses tickle the soles of our feet
* Purple evening skies beckon us to linger longer under the moon’s rays
Nature’s sights and sounds delight and inspire us to tread softly on this precious planet, while savoring all that it offers.
We hug its offerings to our hearts and souls, taking clippings and cuttings to brighten our interior decor and sustain us through hectic days.
Mother Nature . . . this bud’s for you!
Even in the stillness, the cosmos swirls. Even when silence reigns, we hear its heartbeat.
Aah . . . that’s better!
