I so appreciate complex minds and presentations of personal observation,
... the talent to produce a representation deserves a moment of simplicity.
Thank you, Mark https://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/?uid=575782
Song Of The Flower
Khalil Gibran
I am a kind word uttered and repeated
by the voice of Nature
I am a star fallen from the
blue tent upon the green carpet
I am the daughter of the elements
with whom Winter conceived...
to whom Spring gave birth; I was
reared in the lap of Summer and I
slept in the bed of Autumn.
At dawn I unite with the breeze
to announce the coming of light.
At eventide I join the birds
In bidding the light farewell
The plains are decorated with
my beautiful colors, and the air
is scented with my fragrance
As I embrace Slumber the eyes of
night watch over me, and as I
awaken I stare at the sun, which is
the only eye of the day.
I drink dew for wine, and hearken to
the voices of the birds, and dance
to the rhythmic swaying of the grass.
I am the lover's gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.
But I look up high to see only the light,
and never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.

This is a great photograph. The color scheme, the composition and the angle were all clearly thought out very carefully. I like pretty much everything about it.
