To Make a Prairie by Emily Dickinson


My Wisteria in Spring---breakfast for a fat, hungry bumble bee.



To Make a Prairie
By Emily Dickinson

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
one clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
if bees are few.

You're welcome, sweet Erin. xo

Ben, I have tons more stuff to post, too. LOL! I took 500 photos this summer of my flowers, dragonflies and butterflies. They love being models for me. xo

I used to put wisteria blossoms on salads. Then, I read that they were poisonous, so I stopped.

It makes things seem so minimal and simple, doesn't it? Just one bee. Just one clover. One prayer. One kiss. One revelation.

"Every day is day one."
