Le ciel incandescent
Le bleu infini de la mer
S'unissent dans un chant

He follows me everywhere, even on the beach... one of the family lands and garden is not far from there...

Constant, infinite motion
Time has blurred your memory
Clouds have given a shape to emptiness,
Your smile resists
Your gaze pierces the haze
You're there...
You're here...
Your voice
Your words
Echo in my ears.

The sky weeps
silvery tears
adorning the pages
of a yellowing book
with a tale
as old as the world
as new as a small flower
that blooms
in the midst of winter.

There is a magical universe
hiding behind those trees.
And I wonder
how to call miracles
and make them happen?
How to bring
fantasy and magic
in an otherwise gray reality?

This Forest has a Soul.
It breathes.
And it keeps secrets.
A hidden world within.

Eleven years ago, we met.
Our encounter was the most extraordinary, the most unexpected and at the same time the most expected thing in the entire world.

Muscari (grape hyacinth) from the garden. There are many surprising flowers during the fall, when you allow nature to freely express herself.

Orange moon crescent over the sea, in Amchit, two days ago.
The ways toward light
and understanding
are infinite,
and the darkest night
is followed by
the most luminous dawn.

Mauve bougainvillea. This is one of my personal favorites. It is a slip that I planted, a long time ago, that turned into a vine. It worked only once, and this is the only mauve bougainvillea I know of.

One of my favorite views. Those bougainvillea have more flowers than leaves, because of the wind, and the sea spray that is quite salty!
