Nature

A perfect nest. Straw, bits of string, plastic & a feather or two. A vintage aquarium to show it off.  The ultimate assemblage.

I've been spending a lot of time outdoors with the kids lately, enjoying these 50 degree days. Going to the park, looking for 'nature' as my son calls it.  I was inspired to build this little shrine.

The kids planted their first garden last summer, this sunflower is evidence of their green thumbs.

A prayer of thanks tucked among the seeds.

NOTHING GOLD CAN STAY

Nature's first green is gold,

Her hardest hue to hold.

Her early leaf's a flower;

But only so an hour.

Then leaf subsides to leaf.

So Eden sank to grief,

So dawn goes down to day.

Nothing gold can stay.

-Robert Frost
