I see this so often
it puzzles me
that I hadn’t noticed
those flowers
What a spot they picked
and how beautifully
standing
blending in
this rusty barrel
They blend so well
that they decided
to grow rust themselves…
And all this
they do
in silence

Wonderful photos, Marina. The framing of the flowers against the geometry of the rusty barrel is perfect. It’s been a long time since I’ve listened to Chick Corea. I was really into Return to Forever when I was a teenager in the mid 1970’s. I think my daughter has all my Chick Corea, Al di Meola, Stanly Clarke and Jean-Luc Ponty albums.

Thank you, my friend. I see this barrel every time I visit that hill and have photographed the rust previously [haven’t posted it yet], but this time I was literally grabbed by those odd looking flowers against the rust. So glad you liked them! 🙂

So Was I – my boyfriend in high school introduced me to Return to Forever and get this… summer of 2015 a bunch of us (12) reunited to go see Al Di Meola at the Montreal Jazz Fest – a lot of us saw each other at school reunions and other get-togethers but this one was really special.
