Seek the Beauty

Walking in the woods this time of year, I don't see much color. 
There's an occasional dart of red from a cardinal 
or some orange bittersweet buds still hanging around, 
but without snow, brown covers the canvas. 

Tim and I walked a path at the local park not long ago 
and this bright orange fungi grabbed my attention. 
I love discovering beauty in the every day. 
Some people may not think fungus is pretty, 
but this particular one looked like flower petals growing from wood.

When you're out and about or even at home seek beauty in every day.

He has made everything beautiful in its time
He has also set eternity in the human heart; 
yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
-Ephesians 3:11

  2. There is much beauty in a winter walk. This week I saw a Purple Finch with his bright raspberry color. Winter makes it easy to see beautiful hawks and other migrant birds, ducks and geese.
