A word a week photo challenge ‘window’ – ‘Down the garden path’.

Posted on Sep 10, 2014 by lavendermoongirl

I loved walking along this garden path discovering the magic of the cottage garden.Look how the Buddlea draws us closer to the open blue framed bedroom window. Perhaps an artist is sitting there painting the view and enjoying the scented summer. For me, experiencing this hideaway garden was a very special moment. I hope you enjoy it too. 🙂

This photograph was inspired by Ese’s photo prompt ‘waiting’. I like the way the birds look as if they are queuing and waiting for something to happen. My Border Collie is waiting in anticipation too. Even in St.Albans we have had flooding as you can see in the photo. I hope you enjoy the peaceful setting.

Splash of yellow

Splashes of sunny

Yellow,

Brushing lush rushes

Beside the water.

I’m responding here to a photo challenge to photograph the colour yellow. I love yellow, it is a wonderful vibrant, happy colour.

‘ Memories are the key not to the past
but the future.’
Corrie Ten Bown

Time to wander,
Pondering whilst
Sauntering on
Sunny,
Silky,
Wet sand
Like a caramel
Fudge land.
Salty lips,
Chalky skin,
A deep,
Warm mineral
Breath in:
Letting go.
Waves fade
Negative thoughts
Wash away.
Sea lavender breeze,
Flotsam of old trees.
Memories like
Sea glass pebbles
And sea shell patterns
In the sand.

Ese’s challenge ‘memories’ gave me the idea to return to the memory of the walk with my husband and dogs on the Norfolk sands one carefree day when we were on holiday and had time to saunter and breathe in the minerals and taste the seaside. It was a precious memory, where we got lost in our own thoughts, reminisced and had fun with our dogs. The light was wonderful, so relaxing.
