Wildflowers: FOTD Aug 27, 2023

 

This photo was taken in October on the way to Tapalpa. The flowers may not be as profuse this year because of the lack of rain. Perhaps I’ll go see!

The angriest skies contain the germ of the next day’s sun.
No matter what pervades your day, once that day is done,
your prospects for a better day already have been cast,
for the material of our future is gathered from our past.

Clear skies are born from thunder clouds and summer days from mist.
Tomorrow’s field of flowers is held in the tempest’s fist.
You may call me Pollyanna, but I can attest

to the truth that oftentimes the worst is followed by the best.

 

 

 

 

 Prompt words today are clear skies,contain, angry,pervade and material.

Wildflowers, FOTD Mar 29, 2019

 

Because everyone is going so crazy in California trying to view this year’s bumper crop of wildflowers and as a result causing traffic jams and ruining the fields by rolling in them while taking selfies, I decided to show you these photos I took of wildflowers near Tapalpa, Mexico, a few hours drive away from my house.  They were taken in 2010 and 2011.
