I picked these before the frost and hung them in a closet for a few weeks. Strawflower, zinnias, cornflower.

One for the kitchen and one for my counseling space. Subtle beauty of the stillness.

I sit in silence with the shadows of the early morning glow. Off in the distance the melody of birds calls to me, becoming aware of the wind rustling through the trees. A cool breeze flows over my skin. Beckoning me. Taking me away.

Good morning ☺️

The snapdragons and cornflower hanging on by a thread amongst the faded zinnias.

The beauty in endings.

Looks like my growing season comes to an end tomorrow night😞

Need to harvest all my peppers and select some healthy blooms for my winter dry flower arrangement.

I have been transformed through grieving those I have lost, their essence forever entwined with mine. #Grief
