Gift

I walked into the bedroom the other evening and this is what I saw. Oh my, the whole room was aglow with the most amazing colour.
I ran for my camera then pulled back the curtain to take a picture or two.
Wow, what an amazing gift awaited me just outside my bedroom window and I almost missed it. If I hadn't been walking past the window at just that moment, and stopped to investigate the scene then run for my camera I would have missed it, and the opportunity to share it with you.
Mother Nature is a truly talented artist and she loves to splash the colour around. She made each one more vivid for a minute or two, then her paint-brush, the sun, was put down and the colours washed away. I am so glad I took the time to LOOK and REALLY SEE when I did.
Here's to a week of opening our eyes to the beauty all around us and catching Mother Nature's creations when she fleetingly gifts them to us.

Lorna - one or two escaped from your backyard and showed up outside my bedroom window.
