~ Rabindranath Tagore

Foxtail Abstract Art

The moment one gives close attention to any thing, even a blade of grass 

it becomes a 

mysterious, awesome, indescribably 

magnificent world in itself.

Fenced In

"The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. No, not at all. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be." 

 — Robert Fulghum

~ John Calvin

Have you ever stopped and looked closely at a blade of grass?

Very Small in a Big World

Go out, go out I beg of you     
 And taste the beauty of the wild.     
 Behold the miracle of the earth     
 With all the wonder of a child.  
- Edna Jaques 

A Scorpion Fly peeking out at me behind some blades of grass. When I see this I think of what a tiny creature he is in such a great big world. 
Sometimes I feel like this Scorpion Fly.

Frosty Blade of Grass

We say of the oak, "How grand of girth!"

Of the willow we say, "How slender!"

And yet to the soft grass clothing the earth

How slight is the praise we render.
~Edgar Fawcett

Bending

Bend when you must. Pull when you must. Both are an offering. When you bend, be at peace; when you pull, do so gently.
