How Do You Graciously Say Good-bye

 


to someone you love 

but who's

out-stayed their welcome?

 With flowers, of course.

 Because

now it's time to prepare

for 

a new house guest


anita pelayo rivera les dames d'abord


whose arrival is extolled on every 

street corner


anita pelayo rivera les dames d'abord


and in every 

celestial - earthly place.

Preparations are intense

as we greet the most fleeting

yet most 

profound season

that comes 

THEN

in the blink

of

a heart beat

takes 

your breath away.

Anita. Your images are so beautiful. It’s such a gift to be able to come here and see what you’ve created, to read your carefully chosen words and rest my eyes on your gorgeous photography. Each time I’m transported and it’s exactly what I need.

Have you gotten any blossoms yet? Oh, these photos are beautiful, Anita. I know it would be hard to say good-bye to that white wonder....but I bet you're ready for Spring. What kind of flower is that in your white bouquet? They're so unique and lovely. Oh, I would love to see those blossom trees grace your street corners, what a sight! They look a bit Purplish to me. That's an amazing photo with the light coming through. Please share your Spring when it arrives. I look forward to seeing all that beauty.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, dear one.

love, ~Sheri

From your mouth to God's ears, Anita! I find myself mentally skipping down that brick path past the park bench, in time to your music, sweet purples blooming over my head. Towards Spring! So lovely, dear artist!

Anita, Another lovely post filled with magical words and images. We are seeing so many signs of Spring here already. I have to be honest, aside from the incessant rain we had a very mild winter so I am not so ready to say goodbye. I understand that your winter has been long, cold and snowy so I am sure that you are "chomping at the bit" as they say to see the beauty of Spring. I cannot wait to see what you create this Spring and Summer.


Have a breautiful week my friend, xo Elizabeth

I remember when I lived in St. Paul, walking past a pile of black snow in a corner of a parking lot in late April. It looked as if it would still be there Aug. 15. Indestructible.
Your photos are always so beautiful. Candy for the eyes and food for the soul.
Thank you!

Karen said...

Spring has come to Southern California and everyone seems to be smiling. I love the photography you've shared with us. It truly is worth a thousand words.
xo,
Karen

Pure happiness here, always & forever!

In a harsh and busy world where beauty and softness have to take a backseat to demanding necessities of the here and now, your lovely, scripted words dancing around beautiful images & floating on sweet music are always a breath of fresh air. I never realize how much I look forward to your sweet interruptions until I open them up and my breath comes out in a heavy sigh. You, my friend, are a delight.

We have some sweet birds singing songs of Spring and on the other hand we just had some snow flurries! Aw...I do love Spring so much but on the other hand I truly have embraced our first Winter in beautiful Colorado! Love this post my dearest, always a joy to receive a new post in my inbox from you!
XOXO

Absolutely beautiful, my dear friend! These flowers of yours are stunning, but I also like the minimalism in your last photo! I can't wait for spring to unfold here; it's been such a long, cold and colourless winter...

Splenderosa said...

So beautiful. Just so beautiful. I'm waiting for a book of your photographs, even if it is a tiny book for your readers & IG'ers only. We'll buy it !!
Sending love, darling Anita.

I have been married & barren for 5years i had no child. i have never been pregnant i was a subject of laughter from my Friends & neighbors, i almost lost my marriage because of this issue . i was so confused that i did not know what to do until i came across this great Dr Ahmed online and i contacted him at once i was scared weather it was going to work because i never believed things like this before, so i decided to give it a try and i did all what Dr Ahmed asked of me and today to my greatest surprise i took in the first time and i gave birth to a bouncing baby boy and now my marriage that was about crashing before is now restored. my husband now love and want me better, Am so happy for everything that have been happening my life since i met this Dr Ahmed.
I want to tell all the women out there who have a similar situation like that the world is not over YET they should dry up their tears and contact this great man and their problem will be gone or are you also having other problems you can also contact Dr Ahmed, here is how you can contact him Ahmedutimate@gmail.com or Contact him via his whats-app number +2348160153829.
