Beautiful in Death 3
‘Invasion’ tulips doing the dance of death on my porch
There are many kinds of death.
Flamboyant – -
Curious, with connections still unmade
Blazing in glory:
…and letting the dying embers glow:
It can be simple, almost innocent
…or replete with the fulfillment of a life well lived, a legacy left.
And sometimes, in the face of death, life becomes transparent.

Truly beautiful!
It remind me a sensitivity of ephemera.
I love a dramatic scene and this post is most definitely one. The last, ‘transparent’ one – wow! There is indeed beauty in the Death of growing things if we value them enough. The life span of a plant reminds us of our own mortality in a nutshell, a fact against which all art has been produced.
