Colour Me Happy

I've been thinking about colour a lot lately, I'm very fond of bright, bold colours.  I'm equally as fond of soft, subdued colours.  Looking out on the garden everyday I'm noticing  as one bloom dies another one appears in a different splash of colour.  It makes me think about  Monet, how his sight failed him in later years, how frustrated he became as a painter.  I can feel his loss!


So today I'm posting these pics as my happy post for the sheer joy of seeing colour. I'm celebrating seeing colour!

Have a wonderful, colourful, happy week to all of you.

Your pictures are beautiful. It is so much fun to share what makes us happy each week. It also reminds me that happiness can be found in so many different things. Color being one of them.
Have a great week.

Haiku my Heart #42 - Shine on

t'was just a sparkle peeping through the blacks and grey it filled my whole eye .... My daughter's car stands motionless on our drive, she is in hospital with severe stress symptoms. It has been a dark week, yesterday I noticed a sparkle reflecting off of her car through my window. She's been rattling up and down the motorway for the last year everyday to the job she loves and is fighting hard to keep. The car had so many rattles, now fixed by my love, it's washed, polished and resting-up waiting for her return. For more haiku poetry Visit Recuerda mi Corazon

Haiku my Heart #49 ~ Numbers

 After yoga yesterday we discussed significant numbers, today being Friday 13th, unlucky for some they say! On the other hand the year 2012 is said to be an auspicious year, The Chinese Year of the Golden Dragon, taking place only once every 60 years .  It also happens to be a leap year so  that means the possibility of climbing my same old staircase an extra time this year! The number 300 is significant too  this being my  300th post!  whilst yesterday the 12th was my blog birthday 2 years! So what do these numbers all amount to? Can I count on them to calculate my life? Or are they just markers of time,  as illusory as my shadows? shadows behind me  light always falls to the front  illuminates now sending to  Postcards from Paradise Recuerda mi Corazon BTW this is my 49th Haiku  I'm sure this is a significant number! ;~) PS I'm really getting into this numbers thing,  apparently 7 is the perfe...
