The design of the chairs was created by someone who would never themselves sit on one. The chairs have few sharp edges. the chairs cast soft shadows.

window box filled with life
the box containing the flowers is rotting away, the snow has done a number on the door. The flowers look so alive that they appear as though they find the box a bit confining & wish to escape it. Montpelier, Vermont
Like a firework…
The red is first thing I noticed. But there is lime green & yellow in it’s center. Fine white fur, like a peach, stands on the green stem. Gerber Daisies remind me of fireworks~they are stunning & they were not made to last. I always ooh & ah (awe?) at a firework’s explosion, while I…
