Thoughts For Tuesday...Wonderful, Luscious Wisteria!

Wisteria sinensis
Chinese Wisteria.
A twining climber with pendent clusters of fragrant, lilac-blue pea-like flowers in late spring and early summer.

draping, dreamy, dropping, drooping, luscious, lazy, lovely, luxurious, lavendar

and then there's naughty!

"Violet lavender drug
slipping beneath my skin,
 shucking off the stale air

 of too long shut in,

 too long shut away

 whispering to me
 to breathe deep and be."
            Wisteria Woman by Lisa Shields

Thoughtful Tuesday... Guru in the Garden

Come along with me on Thoughtful Tuesday...

where we can think about everything, or nothing or fantasy...

of being alone, thinking of a lover or cuddling with a furry friend...

bright cheery accents, flowers, fun things or fairies!
"And as it touched your cheeks so lightly
Born again you were and blushed
And we touched each other lightly
And we felt the presence of the Christ within our hearts
In the garden
And I turned to you and I said



No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father in the garden

Listen



No guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature
And the Father and the Son and the Holy Ghost
In the garden

Wet with rain

No Guru, no method, no teacher
Just you and I and nature and the Father AND THE SON and the Holy Ghost
In that garden, in the garden, wet with rain"  
       Van Morrison
