moonflower, j c raulston arboretum, ncsu, Raleigh, north carolina
A wildflower vine growing everywhere in swampy areas.
This specimen was at Circle B Bar Reserve , Lakeland Florida
Shining light, show and tell
Don't be scared, truth is hell
Down we go, wish me well
No one knows where we fell

.....this was taken at Sunrise but not of the sun rather the Moon making this a Moon-set therefore the sunflowers become moon flowers...hmmm! I shouldn't get technical - enjoy the pre dawn mood! (this was the Buck Moon)
Hide, hide from my side
Leave here before I
Die with the sun
And I, I see the lines
Carved deep into the eyes
Ghost in my sight
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea
Chain into the pain I feel
Keep your light safe from me
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea
Chain into the pain I feel
Keep your light safe from me
See my eyes, dim the blue
I will never see
How I saw with you
And how could I go so blind?
When the eyes light the sea, I will
Keep your heart safe from me
And I cut myself dry
On wild moonflowers
Under the rye
And I carve myself blind
Grieving the sunrise
Years in my eyes, the fight
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea
Chain into the pain I feel
Keep your light safe from me
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea
Chain into the pain I feel
Keep your light safe from me
See my eyes, dim the blue
I will never see
How I saw with you
And how could I go so blind?
When the eyes light the sea, I will
Keep your heart safe from me
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea
Chain into the pain I feel
Keep your light safe from me
Crown me!
Throw me into the sea (the sea)
Chain into the pain I feel (I feel)
Keep your light safe from me (from me)
See my eyes, dim the blue
I will never see
How I saw with you
And how could I go so blind?
When the eyes light the sea, I will
Keep your heart safe from me
The music: Swallow the Sun - Keep your heart safe from me

There are no photo opportunities on these gray December days. There is an archive. August 2024 - Summer, is the coolest time.
My summer Moonflower garden is my favorite place to me in the early morning, since the flowers are still open and reaching to the moon in the sky.

Ipomoea alba, known in English as white tropical morning glory, moonflower or moonvine, is a species of night-blooming morning glory,[3] native to tropical and subtropical regions of North and South America, from Argentina to northern Mexico, Arizona, Florida[4] and the West Indies.[5] Though formerly classified as genus Calonyction, species aculeatum, it is now properly assigned to genus Ipomoea, subgenus Quamoclit, section Calonyction.[6]
Description
Ipomoea alba is a perennial, herbaceous liana growing to a height of 5–30 m (20–100 ft) tall with twining stems. The leaves are entire or three-lobed, 5–15 cm (2–6 in) long, with a stem 5–20 cm (2–8 in) long. The flowers are fragrant, white or pink, and large, 8–14 cm (3–6 in) diameter. The flowers open quickly in the evening and last through the night, remaining open until touched by the morning dew. On overcast days, the blossoms may remain open for longer. The flowers also tend to remain open longer during cool temperatures, which may also cause the segments to snag or tear as they open
The moonflower (also known as devil’s trumpet and thorn apple) is a lovely trumpet-shaped, self-seeding, nocturnal annual flower and a wonderful addition to your flower garden. A North American native, the moonflower was founded in Jamestown, Virginia, and its botanical name is ipomoea alba.
