Tall they stand—bell-bodied, swaying like thoughts in a breeze not seen but deeply known. Each violet throat open, not for sound but for presence, as if the air itself leans close to listen. A song not sung, but grown.
Green leaves cradle the stem like memory holds childhood: gently, protectively, with a strength that doesn’t shout. Flowers climb skyward in quiet succession, soft-lit and trembling with colour that feels like breath. Pink slips to purple, yellow winks like shy sunlight—clouds watching, wind writing verses no hand will catch.
This is nature speaking in stillness. Not wild, but wise. A pleasure of form where nothing forces, only flows. Each bloom a word in the sentence of becoming, telling us: don’t chase beauty—stand in it. Let it rise from your root.
Some minds may measure growth in numbers, names, futures hung on thick walls of logic. But this? This is another language. Not intellectual, but intuitive. Not fact, but felt. Even a child, wandering barefoot near such flowers, knows: this is truth blooming. A truth not to be studied, but to be trusted.
And though the world teaches us to build—bigger, faster, louder—the flower teaches us to bloom, even in silence. Even unseen.
This is not decoration. This is declaration: I am alive, and I am enough.
Your support makes a difference in my life and helps me create more of what you, and I, like. Thank you!
