Nature’s Colours
Colours are all around us, but do we really see.
We take every thing for granted, and act so seriously
Have you ever stopped to think, if the world was black and white.
Close your eyes for a minute think! What if you had no sight?
Never to see a tree full with shades of green.
Never to know the blues of skies and ocean seas.
Come with me on a journey, back to nature and discover
Open your eyes see afresh a world full of colour.
Collecting sacks of yellow is our busy bumblebee.
Making lots of honey in his hide amongst the trees.
Surrounded by the flowers, whose colours are so bold?
Colours of a rainbow, now there’s your pot of gold.
Rose red, primrose yellow, oranges and apples green.
Tell me, who created all these lovely scenes.
Dazzling bright, smoothly blending, colours of the spectrum.
Every colour you can imagine is Gods almighty emblem.
Eagles circling with effortless ease, around a snow capped mountain
Reflecting sunlight upon a lake. Cascading like a fountain.
Wildlife in our forests before they cut the trees,
Tiger, Bear, and Panda and swinging Chimpanzees
Icecaps snowy beauty of Seal and Polar Bear,
Icebergs that comes crashing in the warming sunny glare.
The fish deep in the ocean, the salmon in the stream.
All full of beauty, much better than any dream.
So when you next open up your eyes.
Look and SEE you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
At the beauty, which surrounds us, and it’s absolutely free.
For which I pray to thank our Creator, most gratefully.

Oh Cat!… You overwhelm me at times….. I am only ME too.. I wrote this some time ago and revamped it with the photos .. I have lots more in my poem section.. And lots more I haven’t posted.
I am so happy you enjoyed so much.. And this way you get to see my garden… Although the photos were taken in 2010 Nothing much has changed except the flowers in their pots, which are way behind this year with all the rain we’ve had..
I sat thinking this afternoon at all the colours we have in our life and how very very lucky we are to see and experience this World with all its magical wonders.. And so I thought of the poem I wrote and added for a post.. Enjoy your Nap.. Catch you tomorrow.. ~Sue

Hey DW….I think as people begin to ground more they see more and appreciate more. So many are disconnected and ungrounded thanks to Haarp, cell phones etc. They have been destabilizing folks for a long time now. I am praying this exhausting, continuous pounding from the solar flares is switching DNA’s and waking folks up. I had approx.16 flare alert emails in my mailbox just today!!!! I have never been so exhausted but I am hoping for the best as far as change. I hope all is well there and you are settling back in from vaca…Take care…VK

Wow! This is a piece og great creative writng and I need to acknowledge you for that.
Unfortunately, our education and socialisation lead to development of your analytical and ‘numbers’ ability, more often than not. We think and act sequentially and lose the capacity to really ‘see’ the big picture and the myriad colours in it and the interplay.
Such pieces can really help in firing the neurons of our right brain…..

The big ‘Vase’ is a chimney wood-burner..And yes we have been known to BBQ upon it.. although unfortunately since this photo was taken it got knocked over when the garden lawn was being mown. and the Chimney broke..a shame as we had it for around 8 yrs … we are going to use as a planter now.. And have bought a Cast Iron one, which will not break or crack in the winter.. Thank you Sabina…

You have added a wonderful slideshow of colours here Sue and you are right I think that the most of us just get on with the everyday tasks of life without actually just standing back and enjoying the real beauty of our earth. We are certainly spoiled for choice and should take time out every day to feel the energies of life all around us.
I have squirrels and hedgehogs in my garden Sue, even the odd fox chooses to call by from time to time and last month I even spotted a heron amongs the many different species of birds that fly in and land beside the bird table. Yes I do feed them all, birds, squirrels, hedgehogs, foxes including the odd stray cat or three but hey they all deserve a little warmth from us humans and so this is my way of giving something back to our most fascinating wildlife 🙂
Have a wondrously nice rest of evening
Sue and thank you for a very nice offering 🙂

I’m happy that you feed the wildlife Andro, And love that you have Foxes visit. I have seen the odd one on our Avenue, and I know they are very close as they take the odd hen or two from those Garden holders who have them on the allotments where we garden.. But most now are securely penned in.. We do not get as many squirrels here, but have hedgehogs in abundance.. As we do every neighbours Cat too.. They know where to come to a love and Fuss.. as I miss not having my cats… So All are welcome and all remember their manners!!! 🙂 Thank you for your visit Androgoth.. ~Sue 🙂
