The wild grasses on the sides
of the coastal track
are autumn brown although it's spring
I bent down to look closely
at the tawny grass
and spotted a splash of yellow
down the hillside
a clump of everlasting daisies
and right on the cliff edge
the daisy seeds set to be carried
by the coastal breeze
to begin a new life 
everlasting...
D.H.Lawrence
I
am part of the sun as my eye is part of me
That I am part of the
earth my feet know perfectly
and my blood is part of the sea
There
is not any part of me that is alone
and absolute except my mind
and
we shall find that the mind has no existence by itself
it is only
the glitter of the sun on the surfaces of the water
D.H.Lawrence
Beautiful images accompanied by meaningful words from D.H.L. Thank you Delwyn.
ReplyDeleteThe shot of the seed head with the sea behind is wonderful, Delwyn. Your blooming just begins there as mine is finished.
ReplyDeletethe brigh yellowin a field of brown adds a touch of joy and delight.
ReplyDeleteI really do love the 4th photo, with the sea in the background - it is so peaceful!
ReplyDeleteLoved the earlier posts, too, with the bearded dragons and frill necked lizards, and other inhabitants of your walking places!
The everlasting daisies appear to have very strong upright stems....perfect for those sea breezes. I only have the white ox-eye daisies growing wild in the yard here.

ReplyDeletethe ox eye daisy is a lovely one. This one is the paper daisy...
I can see signs of spring. Daisies are so beautiful in any color. Loved the poem.
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of the daisy seeds on the cliff. While everything is going to be prepared for the onslaught of the winter in my part of the world, new life starts germinating in your part. Thank you for the introduction of the poem by D.H.Lawrence. I love it. Have happy days ahead, Delwyn.
