Dandelion Four

Gorgeous adversity
Tenaciously delicate
Patience and endurance

In order that all things may be better comprehended, employ one example. When a blooming profusion intimidates, visit a solitary blossom in the immediate area.

“Flowers are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty out values all the utilities of the world. If dandelions were hard to grow, they would be most welcome on any lawn.” – Andrew Mason

Cluster Analysis

More similar
In some sense
Density threshold

Similarities and difference are always in play as the artist observes components in a given conceptual system. Any object must be distinguished from another within the relational field. This dynamic discrimination involves cognitive, emotional, and spiritual connections established between the practitioner and the delineated.

“The image is more than an idea. It is a vortex or cluster of fused ideas and is endowed with energy.” – Ezra Pound

Cascading flowers
Foundation planting

My old house features a yard full of legacy plants that bloom in a progression of color and texture.

“Use spirea in a mixed or shrub border, as a groundocver, in a rock garden, or as hedging, depending on growth habit.” – Steve Aitken

Similar things
Occurring in unison
Synchronously together

Seeing purpose in ends rather than causal speculation, seasonal change becomes directional. That an intrinsic drive seems operative in all adaptive evolutionary trends engenders teleological thinking as a discriminative feature of biological explanation.

“I suppose that flowers, when they’re through blooming, have some sort of awareness of some purpose having been served.” – Kurt Vonnegut

Dandelion Three

Serenity insight
Sensitivity fellowship
Consciousness experiment

The unwanted natural gift that keeps on giving. A weed designation is a discretionary frame of mind.

“Dandelions, like all things in nature, are beautiful when you take the time to pay attention to them.” – June Stoyer

Graceful Efflorescence

Pleasing form
Attractive proportion
Flower production

Delicate lavender
Succession progression

The seasonal blooming of the Redbud tree is a harbinger of good things to come.

“ Deep in the forests in spring, when the redbird makes her first call, she sees only the green of the cedar and the Redbud through brown leaves of fall.” – Maimee Lee Robinson Browne

Apple Blossom

Luxuriant exuberance
Mellifluous tones
Delicate wealth

As an axiom of empiricism, the cycle of life plays-out on an annual basis. We grasp the embryonic object in the essence embodied in an abstract idea, as a complete whole connected in a sequence of change.

“All day in the green, sunny orchard, when May was a marvel of bloom, I followed the busy bee-lovers down paths that were sweet with perfume.” – Margaret E. Sangster
