CARPE DIEM TIME GLASS #31: Sunflower


inspiration from Basho:
first celebrate 
the flowers in your heart   
confined in winter
Translated by Jane Reichhold

from Kristjaan:
grateful
first cherry blossom
in the moonlight



my heart’s winter sun
lives on with images of
summer’s sunflower

sharing with Kristjaan's



Hoosier Quote:
“There is everything in a name. 
A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, 
but would not cost half as much during the winter months.”

I think we can survive many terrible things as long as we hold summery images in our hearts.
