When I think about the word fungi, ‘pretty’ doesn’t come to mind, and the same goes for fungus. But when I saw this gathering that grew on a rotting log while hiking with hubby, I thought they were unique and beautiful. How can we not appreciate nature’s gifts?


Reverence

A painter’s brush moves
across a clean white canvas
like an ice skater on a rink
where magic begins to happen…
just as nature dances
in sunlight and falling rain
creating artwork in lovely hues
and a myriad of shapes.
Her mystique gifts us
visual entertainment
unsurprising to the eye
and in unexpected places.
