haiku my heart - sacred mystery


Exotic blue rose



Incense burns at the altar--




Sacred mystery.

    That blue rose made me breathless and then the little girl in her first communion dress made me smile. Such innocence! Thanks.

    A beautiful and meaningful joining of words and images. The words evoke very different visuals for myself when taken on their own.

    A Tender and beautiful spring bouquet. The burning of incense that resonates deeply in the hearts of the faithful. And finally the innocence and fidelity of the heart of a young girl as she makes her humble May offering to the Madonna. Lovely images and haiku Margaret.
