Cultivate imagination

6.1.26 Index of Delight

Learn to see and to feel life … cultivate imagination, because there are marvels in the world. — Josef Albers

Garlic scapes and a purple artichoke from the community garden come together with a trio of white flowers from my garden. Soft white, lime green and various shades of purple pleasingly echo and rhyme. What’s especially curious about this little posey plucked from the back garden — I didn’t plant a white peony, nigella or anemone. I thought the peony would be coral, the nigella would be shades of blue, and the anemones would be a delicate pearled purple.

Unexpected moments are inevitable. Embrace them and look for hidden rhymes.
