Been neglecting the garden report but there is lots happening! Here are some slightly blurry photos as the wind is blowing like nobody's business today. Daisies, salvia, wallflowers, roses in addition to evening primrose, blanket flowers, sweet william, and red clover all blooming now 🌱

I wonder
What the aroma of you be…
Musky strong mythical Adonis
Sandlewood tobacco dreamer
Leather and grease oiled biker

This some kind of idol I see
What would the wafting breeze
Beneath sapphire skies
Above meadows #jade gem green
Bring to me, I wonder

behind the face hides
the #trickery of gesture
answers are kept
where no word dares to rest
speech grows heavy
with what it refuses
forgets or withholds
until even truth
once spoken
turns slowly
into betrayal

Guns N' Roses - November Rain

I remember blueberries
precariously balanced
on my stomach

while November Rain
pursed wistful notes
from that old stereo
onto our beaded skin,

caring not that it was summer
and the only cold
was the first touch of blue
on your tongue.

A band of #jade rests against Nora's wrist, the bracelet her mother once wore. Its weight is heavy. She pictures her mother moving through her day with it just like this, catching the same light, feeling the same smooth curve, living her ordinary moments with it close.

Rory toured Esme around the #jade surroundings. Ornaments and trinkets of all kinds, all made from the same substance.

It was a very strange horde for a dragon, but you never could tell with the creatures in the game. Sometimes they did weird stuff for the fun of it, others for a purpose.

Magpie manoeuvred under the #jade skies of the planet, heading to a secret rendezvous with an old smuggler acquaintance that, supposedly had some vital information that she would only give over to Dylan.

She was a strange one, though. Could be something, could just be her insanity. Again.

let's meet come evenfall
embracing in celestial love
as aurora jade swirls
~unfold~
to sapphire skies
& a cascade of moon whispers
watch stars pirouette
like javelins of light
where just for this moment
just for this night
our two astral hearts
will beat as one

The main characters of Journey to the West: the Monkey King, the Jade Dragon, the pig demon, the sand demon, and the Longevity Monk.

The main characters of Journey to the West: the Monkey King, the Jade Dragon, the pig demon, the sand demon, and the Longevity Monk.

It's April 21, 2026, and today's mythology-inspired #vss365 #prompt is #jade! Like the Jade dragon from Journey to the West.

This culturally defining Ancient Chinese epic features a wonderfully colorful main cast, helmed by the wonderfully rebellious Monkey King!

i wrote a piece of poetry
of how we used to be
reminiscing about
my wildflower heart
getting lost
within the layers of you,
nights of breathless sighs,
our last blissful dance
'neath vespertine skies,
& how when letting go hurt
shattering my forlorn soul
the day you said goodbye.

between the shadows of the night
retreats the light of her soul,
dancing alone
to the melody of the moonsong,
casting a wish
upon the starry pool of dreamers'
for his devotion
to bestow no trickery,
but to warm her heart
to embrace her heart
to love her...

just to love her.

#Undersea deep,vast swaths of nothingness,or so it seems,elastic furrows of languid #Cephalopods roam,tentacles entwined in a kiss of death.Twirled air bubbles float as they scuttle in caves of flora
&fauna.Chasms entrap the lonely hunters in viscous, eternal waters

Black and white photo of sunlight reflecting across a still ocean.

Dreams,
sculpted in #seafoam,
see how they fall?

Not gone,
only roaming
portless
blue silence

tiny explorers,
in search of that
new world.

My poem ~ Catherine Beavis ©️
.
they waited patiently 
watching sunlight dancing on the water
glittering joy making the waves glow
as the cerulean seafoam
gently caressed their toes,
they waited patiently
as the sun dipped behind the horizon
kissing the ocean goodnight
whilst dappled apricot clouds
painted the deep azure light,
they waited patiently
for the sparkly celestial canopy
to beautifully blanket their crepuscular time
where they then cast their wishes
upon the starry starry skies
to be forever embracing
by one another's side.
