Once upon a time there were three Seagulls ...
Here's something different, we could create a story with our comments, if everybody adds a sentence to follow on from the one before, our collective imaginations could create a story about these three Seagulls. Let's play and see where it takes us ...
Evening calm at the shoreline - just a few oystercatchers out for a stroll before dinner.
**** EDIT: Apparently these are hooded plovers and not oyster catchers. Glad I got in the sentence about oysters before 😉 Thanks to those who pointed it out!
They seemed perfectly content, stepping through sunset reflections looking for tasty tidbits.
I wish they could have caught some oysters for me; I do love a fresh natural oyster! Shucking oysters is a shell of a good time ;)
Hope everyone had a great weekend.
Thanks for any visits and comments, always appreciated!

When you're asleep they may show you
Aerial views of the ground
Freudian slumber empty of sound
Over the rooftops and houses
Lost as it tries to be seen
Fields of incentive covered with green
Mesmerised children are playing
Meant to be seen but not heard
"Stop me from dreaming!"
"Don't be absurd!"
"Well if we can help you we will
You're looking tired and ill
As I count backwards
Your eyes become heavier still
Sleep, won't you allow yourself fall
Nothing can hurt you at all
With your consent
I can experiment further still."
Madrigal music is playing
Voices can faintly be heard
"Please leave this patient undisturbed."
Sentenced to drift far away now
Nothing is quite what it seems
Sometimes entangled in your own dreams
"Well, if we can help you we will
Soon as you're tired and ill
With your consent
We can experiment further still
Well, thanks to our kindness and skill
You'll have no trouble until
You catch your breath
And the nurse will present you the bill!"
"You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think" :-))
Dorothy Parker's most famous quote

What a difference a Year Makes
This was December 2019 , commuting in the dark and seeing the dawn rising . as the LUAS tram passed over the M50 motorway. I have been Working From Home . since late February , this year has gone in a blur of unexpected events and lots and lots of isolation. I don't know how I feel about commuting anymore. It seems like something from a bizarre Sci-fi film now :)
We are good at adapting !

Just for fun -- seeing the line up of flowers in various stages seem to form a sentence using different 'words' and 'punctuation marks'!
The soccer field completely covered by vegetation.
L'isola di Capraia è stata sede, dal 1873 al 1986, di una Colonia penale agricola. Tale colonia penale fu destinata alla rieducazione dei condannati a pene lievi che dimostravano di potersi redimere. Nel corso dei decenni furono realizzate opere di bonifica, costruzione di strade e di strutture di vario tipo. Ora è in rovina e abbandonata.
The island of Capraia was the site of an agricultural penal colony from 1873 to 1986. This penal colony was intended for the re-education of those sentenced to light sentences who showed that they could redeem themselves. Over the decades, land reclamation works and the construction of roads and various types of structures were carried out. It is now in ruins and abandoned.
There is a sentence in Aristotle’s Metaphysics that says, “God moves the world as the beloved moves the lover.” This is also the meaning of learning, to be moved by that which is of the Spirit, to find joy in the existence of the Spirit, to love the Spirit. In the language of the Bible, the Hebrew word yada ידע, which refers to the concept of knowledge, is also used to mean both knowledge and the act of love. Yada ידע means not only knowledge through reason, but the most intimate interaction with things. It means knowing things lovingly.
-In This Hour Heschel’s Writings in Nazi Germany and London Exile, Abraham Joshua Heschel, Foreword by Susannah Heschel
The stripes may mark him as the prisoner, yet the weight rests on her shoulders. His smoke drifts free into the night, while she sits bound by silence. On the steps of the Cathedral, the roles of captive and keeper quietly reverse. Shot in Cologne, Germany with a Leica M11 Mono and Summilux 50mm.
This sentence is made of lead (and a sentence of lead gives a reader an entirely different sensation from one made of magnesium).
This sentence is made of yak wool.
This sentence glows in the dark.
This sentence was born with a caul.
This sentence once spit in a book reviewer's eye.
This sentence suffered a split infinitive - and survived.
This sentence leaks.

I got inspired by this sentence ''Free like a bird''
Well I didnt have wings or feathers or anything so I just had to improvise x]
"This fine-textured shrub is quite unassuming when not in flower, but in winter it really comes alive with its beautiful purple flowers, which go on for months. It belongs to the family Polemoniaceae." Native to Peru, but is widely cultivated in western North America. In this particular plant, I was taken as much by the speckled leaves as the beautiful blue flowers. It's like summer and winter combined.
I was just reading an article with the first sentences. "Have you ever wondered why there are so few blue flowers. When it comes to nature, blue is very rare. Less than 1 in 10 plants have blue flowers and far fewer animals are blue. So why is that? Part of the reason is that there isn't really a true blue colour or pigment in nature and both plants and animals have to perform tricks of the light to appear blue. Blue is a tough color to spot in nature because there is no naturally occurring blue compound to color things blue."
And the rareest of blues? Lapus Lazuli is a blue mineral so rare that in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance it was actually more valuable than gold.
I found the article when I was I was looking for an answer to why my favorite bird, the Blue Jay really isn't blue. The Absence of Blue Jay is just silly. Blue jays only appear blue due to the structure of their feathers, which distort the reflection of light.
Well, so much for my ever understand chemestry and physics. Of all the flowers I have posted in ten years, #1 is red, #2, is yellow, # 3 is a tie between orange and blue, #4 is white (the absence of color, and waaaay down the list with only three flowers is green. See below
I leave all of this, and I mean "all" to those who are interested and have a liftetime to study and who have easy graders if they have to take chemistry (or even art) in college.
Note, by the way, that there is actually a Flickr group dedicated to the blue flower!

"And since our prison is
A land whose only horizon
Is a desert
A desert
And since we must suffer standing up
To survive here only on our knees
In the dust
Since love
Is unattainable, one day
And the dream too heavy
To be free one day
But may God forgive me
If being only a man
Is my maximum sentence
And since our calls are lost
And our sky remains without light
And without a gaze
Wherever we look
Even if believing is only a recourse
Before the little hope that surrounds us
That leads us astray
Since love
Is unattainable, one day
And the dream too heavy
To be free one day
But may God forgive me
If being only a man
Is my maximum sentence
Oh, oh
Maximum
But why kneel?
For whom would I want to live standing up?
Since love
Is unattainable, one day
And the dream too heavy
To be free one day
But may God forgive me
If being only a man
Is my greatest sorrow
But may God forgive me
If being only a man
Is my greatest sorrow
Oh, oh, greatest
Is my greatest sorrow "
Doing time inside all week long at the job, now sentenced to see this beautiful sky while traveling home....I don't know about these travelers but I can handle this type of sentence just fine:)
