true love Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no; it is an ever-fixed mark, That looks on tempests, and is never shaken. ~ Shakespeare, Sonnet 116 (Summer Snail Fest – Day Six)
summer rain Summer Snail Fest is here! Join me for a new snail image every day for the next 8 days. Why are snails worth celebrating?

winter flower This Queen Anne’s Lace flower reminds me of a snowflake. I like the green pattern and the flower’s airy delicacy.
group hug This is a group hug – or a holy huddle – where seeds get some vital encouragement before they go and disperse Life into the world.
