Flowers. It doesn't get any better than this tonight. To be perfectly honest, it sort of makes my day if I can share a little bit of the botanicals with you. I spotted these in a nursery in the fall last year and they gave me the pleasure of coming back into my life. Uninvited, although very welcome. I like the way they hung their head down. Shy. Ashamed. You pick.
There is much forgiveness tonight as I was called into work six hours early and had not finished #MarketFriday for this week. So, I scrapped the unfinished piece and tossed a few flowers around the place. Not in my plans.
Everything can be beautiful
When you are gazing
In the direction
Tell me, tell me, tell me true
Are you going my way?
STOP!! BRAIN TEASER AHEAD!!
Three women were changed into flowers which grew in the field, but one of them was allowed to be in her own home at night.
Then once when the day was drawing near, and she was forced to go back to her companions in the field and become a flower again, she said to her husband: "If thou wilt comes this afternoon and gather me, I shall be set free and henceforth stay with thee."
And he did so.
Question: How did her husband know her, for the flowers were exactly alike, and without any difference?
Answer - As she was at her home during the night and not in the field, no dew fell on her as it did on the others, and by this her husband knew her.
I have been to so many new places lately! I love to share and be shared with! I have always and forever liked to see different fruits and vegetables or products that are being sold. Perhaps I cannot get them here. So, yes! I would love to see yours! Don't forget to take photos wherever you happen to be shopping - whether it be the grocery store, the local marketplace or even an art gallery. Wherever money is exchanged for a service or for merchandise. Be different if you wish! It does not have to be a traditional market! We will love it! Don't forget to use the hashtag #MarketFriday and Hive account@dswigle.
Rules of the Road
Go to the market, or anywhere that you pay money for a service.
Take pictures! Be creative (or not, we don't judge!)
Tell us a little bit about the market, what brought you here?
Post the picture(s)

they set my aunts house on fire
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to βokayβ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, whatβs wrong, whatβs happened?
iβve been praying,
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
