I saw your face
In a crowded place
And I don’t know what to do
You caught my eye, as I walked on by
You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. You’re beautiful. It’s true.
(excerpts from "You're Beautiful")
Catch the effect of the setting sun, weaving a framework of brilliance that creates a deep sense of harmonious calm. Because it is #TreeTuesday, I thought I would pull out a few trees for you. Today is #TreeTuesday by @old-guy-photos! ! Show me your trees!!
Sunset showcases the architectural beauty of the night.
Brilliant red was the dress code that night. Luminously splendorous. The bird on the railing perch was a perfect division of contrasting colors between water and sky. The sun seems to dance on the top of the railing. It's nice when it lines all up.
Every so often, throwing a hook and line in the water gives my soul the peace it longs for.
Inner peace, peace of mind, peace be with you, peace, peace, peace...refers to a state of being mentally and spiritually at peace. I liked the movement that the clouds provoked. I purposely made the horizon line off-kilter because I thought it added to the sense of movement; of a fleeting moment.
Oh, the trees of Tuesday, wherefore art thou?
It is with quiet certainty, far and away, that I can touch with my eyes, almost, my sunshine.
The other night dear, as I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke, dear, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and I cried.
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are gray
You'll never know dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away

The magic of you is wrapped up in your heart. Fill it with song, fill it with peace, fill it with joy - then spread your gifts all around. There must be flowers. Always. To color my world. #alwaysaflower Oh, yes. It blossoms sunshine.
Everything she does is magic
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.
The sky was decorated with saturated excitement as the sun kisses the water goodnight. Sweet dreams.
The Naming of Cats
The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.

There is something so magical about a sunset, isn't there! <3
There really is and I suppose, always will be for me. Growing up on the water, it has always had that magic with a little beauty and freedom mixed in there - and it has never diverted far from there. :)
Good morning from here, beauty. I hope you had a wonderful day. :)
Precisely that!
And thank you, I did. <3
❤️
Indeed there is 🌅
This post definitely caught my eye!
Though as beautiful as it is I stay for the beautiful words by our friend @dswigle
Oh, thank you so much for your kind words! :) You really do spoil me with all that you say and do.
Those are some remarkable shots of the sunset, however I must admit to being a sucker for palm trees. Perhaps it is because I never see any in real life. I sure would love to see some palms right about now... Well perhaps one day is all I can say.
When you move, you can see some palms closer to the ocean. :) It is something to look forward to!
And thank you!
I still will have to go south though right?

Hey now that is pretty darn cool! Those look too big to bring in for the winter! Oh I cannot wait to metal detect that place!!!! :D Thanks for showing.
Yes! We have palms in Virginia! Just not where you are going! :)) The shoreline! :)

The magic of sunsets and trees, what a wonderful double of joy. They always attract my eye Denise, loved your photos and your words ---- always flowing so beautifully.💜
Thank you, my friend. You are always so thoughtful and your words are balm for the soul. Thank you, always.
Poetry and photography to take one on a journey, between the trees and birds all a blend of pure harmony, thanks for a cheerful start to my day Denise.

So weird, you must have a sixth sense about yourself. :) I was just thinking about you last night, hoping all is well in your world. This morning, here you are. You must have heard me. :)
Good morning, Joan @joanstewart Thank you for the tipu. How is the world treating you and yours?
Made it through a week of hell, after returning from a week away, province has stopped burning for now and slowly returning to normal. Still sleeping with one eye open!
Popping in randomly during day still not settled to do content, enjoyed reading the calming poems you posted, really makes one start to relax.
Our world is volatile, making it difficult to keep one centered, concentrate on matters at hand... At the moment it is helping people around us who are battling to get food out into rural areas and local old age homes.
Trust you are all well enjoying summer Denise @dswigle
Our world is volatile on the best of days, throwing this into the mix just makes it all the more challenging. Sadly. I hope that things are looking even better today.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and those you are lending a helping hand to. Hugs and love.
Be well and take good care of yourself, Joan. oxo
Managed a hasty visit through the stores today, stocked up with fresh veg for soup which is easiest to share when people look for something warm to eat with some bread which we managed to source as well.
Our socioeconomic situations needs to be addressed a lot quicker than the almost thirty years already taken, one always needs to look at both sides of the coin. Blame game time is over, finding resolutions is what is sorely required.
Thanks for thoughts and hugs, things have quietened down, cold weather arriving from the South (Cape), people without food or blankets are going to face difficult upcoming days.
I will keep you and all of the area in my thoughts and prayers. xoxo
My bad!!! Thank you also for the Tipu curate, Joan! @joanstewart
😌 have a great day...

Thank you so much for the upvote/curation @hive-117778!! Camping Club rocks!
Fantastic shots. Pulling me in just looking at them.
Hey you! Thank you so much! I go over to you and have nothing to upvote. Sad. :)) I figured you were packing.
Thank you for the awesome comment. Made my day! :))
From the ground? I am afraid that I cannot carry them. 😂
Seriously? Dude! pick up the slack! :)) Or one at a time.
The magic of what each one is is certainly wrapped within. We just need to explore and discover.
Lovely images here.
You did pull out a a few beautiful trees 🤣 and they made my day. Yes and the flower too 😁
Thank you so much for your words. They are truly kind and heartfelt.
I hope you have a beautiful day. There is #alwaysaflower for me. :))
Beautiful sunset, trees or not. The bird on the railing is extremely evocative; brings to mind tropical islands, very far away.
Thank you so much. They must loke to roost there. I also captured a pair of ducks that found that spot peaceful as well. It does remind one of a tropical island, although not quite as far as that.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving your words. Have a great day!
Wow. Lovely images. I was trying out my photography skills recently when I discovered it could get better by doing it now and then.
The concept is believable. The bird with it's fine beak, the sunset and the splash of sun rays on the water, all classic.
I think now and then is good, some people need the daily push to grow in different ways. My schedule doesn't permit either, more of a do it when I have a chance kind of thing, although I am still trying to carve out more time in my schedule.
Good morning from here! I hope you had a wonderful day!
This place looks awesome and i really like your pics!
Thank you so much for your kind words and for reposting. It is a beautiful place, and very peaceful. I hope you have a wonderful day.
