How DOES the Garden Grow – With Red Spotted Purples

Darting quickly around the garden resting only for a moment

The Red Spotted Purple is a joy to watch

As I leaned into the Spicebush trying to capture her in a photograph, my cheek was pricked and then began burning.

Stop by tomorrow to see the miniscule creature that caused me much pain.

The symbol of inspiration, devotion and  infinity, blue creates an atmosphere of calm and peace.

Whether looking skyward

or amongst the roots of trees

we loose our self in pools of blue.

Thank you for taking a moment to enjoy the garden!
