love the photo! My father had a pile of bricks in the yard all the time. He tore down a childhood home and some apartments he owned. I made sure I got a stack of them to place in my garden. As strange as it may sound, it brings me comfort to see them now that he is no longer with us.
And how are those bricks growing?? Right now not much is growing here, in fact nothing is growing in my garden...it is fast asleep waiting until spring. But I think your post is speaking metaphorically, not physically....beautiful!!
I always love your quotes, Danielle, they are so thought provoking! Your photo is too! Love the tangled roots around this little stash of bricks. I have stashes of rocks, bricks, boards, you name it. One of these days..... xx
Are you saying my head
ReplyDeleteIs full of bricks and sticks
And thus when
I hypothesize
I don't make a lick
Of sense?
You may be right
'Cause in the night
Even my dreams seem
Weird and strange
But I don't usually
Remember them.
perfect poem for the first image :)
DeleteNot sure which I love more ~ your picture or your words. Perfect combination. LOVE THIS!

ReplyDeleteExcellent prose and the beauty of fallen bricks.
