recuerda mi corazon
a beautiful place to visit

I like the softness of the photo and the seemingly easy acceptance that the swallow has flown away.

Thought it was my eyes :-)
Nostalgia reigns it seems.
Is that R. 'Handel' or possibly 'Peace' by any chance?
Are you going to join Boonie's 'Manchester and Milton Keynes Mondays' ? (:-) What a sense of humour.

This one tugs at my heart - nostalgia for a memory that isn't mine

I love the softness of both the image and the words. It is perfect for the soft morning light I see out my window.

The soft focus seems appropriate for these old-fashioned white roses, and for the idea of a season's sojourn.

The image of the out of focus bloom and the missing, sojourning swallow are a lovely juxtaposition for this part of Fall leading us into winter. I like it very much. You have such a keen eye. Thank you for your lovely thoughts on my blog.
xo,

Great photo! So creative, your words. I felt a lament of sorts as Winter approaches here in the Northland, yet the seasons all have purpose and meaning. Glad I stopped by.

Peace.

Morning has Broken

Yesterday the black dog came to visit me, the same black dog who  used to visit Winston Churchill. When my daughter came around, she could  see the black dog had turned up too and  that I was completely at his mercy. She made her leave with a simple kiss and goodbye,  "hope he goes soon", I nodded in agreement. For when he's around he completely  demands my attention and there's no shaking him loose! On retiring I sternly told the black dog I didn't understand the reason for his visit and that I thought I had sat with him for long enough  and to be gone in the morning! *** I've not seen him so far, this morning thank goodness !!! It is the beginning of a brand new day,  I am grateful for each day of my life...   I was at a funeral on Friday,  to say we'd anticipated a sad day all turned out most beautifully.... my favourite hymn was sung 'Morning has Broken' On this brand new day I'm sitting here tapping the k...

My Silken Altar

The reflective image below is one taken of my south facing window,  which is more like an altar to me because of the ever changing light that allows for embracing the moments of silent connection and praise. I take many photographs from this window as I marvel at the sun's energy  to illuminate or in this case reveal through shadows and reflections. This image has been sitting in my file for sometime, it has a hidden message for me that  I knew would one day surface...    Heart broken open by the mystery of you... love stitches together.  Gentle love rides pain like silken thread slips through jute spring balm for raw edge. Stitch with silken love the polarities of life  embrace the mystery... Sending to Rebecca for healing... Haiku my Heart Recuerda mi Corazon
