Here’s an excerpt from Heaven’s Here On Earth by Tracy Chapman from her CD New Beginnings

…Heaven’s here on earth    In our faith in humankind    In our respect for what is earthly    In our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding     I’ve seen and met angels wearing the disguise of ordinary people leading ordinary lives    Filled with love compassion forgiveness and sacrifice     Heaven’s in our hearts…

Who needs words? Aroma-blogging, now that would be cool. What an awesome sunflower that was.

OK, so the subject of sunflowers grows weary and cliche for some, but the plant has so much character, especially when the flower heads droop with the weight of seeds. Sunset is spectacular tonight with their swaying sillhouettes against the sky.

The first Red variety of Sunflower buds are forming. They don’t even have to open because they are already gorgeous as buds.

Warm colors of the Razor Grass flowers are airy and soft against the morning sky. Ironically, the grass blades are vicious if swiped against the skin, like when going in around the plant to tidy up the dead leaves.
