Have you seen this place?

Posted by Texasholly |



If you look

closely

you might see a path

that leads to a place

where the flowers grow inside of flowers

and the visitors wear the wings of fairies.

It is a magical land

where stars sprout from the ground

to be picked and used as pillows.

Here the color red grows wild

and children slurp up the sights with delight.


On Sunday, please check out other distant places with Lotus.

Is that all in your yard?

Beautiful photos, and your words are magic. "Where flowers grown inside of flowers" and "where the color red grows wild" were among my favorites.

gorgeous! I wonder about the white flowers as well, looks like Stephanotis to me. I have never seen Stephanotis growing in plant form, only in bouquets!

Oh, those are wonderful shots.

FABULOUS pictures. (I'm having some lens envy at the moment.)

Feeling a little bit bad for the dragonfly--although quite beautiful, and I've never seen one that color.

And does your son have RED hair? If yes, how did I never notice that before???? Maybe it was just the lighting.

You are so poetic with these types of posts.
