In Stone It Is Painted
Nothing she decrees is Carved in stone -- it is Painted-- and one Sees she alone knows Where everything goes. This whatness sticks to Rock and rock stays put Face up on an earthen Clock of garden days.
I've been tied up with the A-to-Z and I've missed you, Geo.
Your stones are lovely and ironically, I do rock paintings for the garden, too. I'll paint on anything, actually. Why not? It just makes it all look more unique.
I have not seen stones painted to mark the garden before. It is a wonderful idea! When I first opened your site I thought you were showing off your pet rocks.
What a bright and whimsical way to mark the "earthen clock of garden days".
ReplyDeleteBright and whimsical are very good adjectives for Norma. Thanks, Jon.
DeleteOh these are fabulous, Geo...and your description, "earthen clock of garden days" is so apt for these little treasures.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful! :)
Thanks, Ygraine! Relayed compliment to Norma.

Hope you're having a good day, dear.
Dear Cherdo, I suspected you might be a rock painter. I have some experience in recognizing them.

ReplyDeleteIt's safer than marking seed beds with stakes, which can impale gardeners. I hate getting impaled.
DeleteI read stakes as snakes and was in full agreement :)
DeleteMarking seedbeds with snakes will be in the next Olympics. I mean, they have badminton now. It's gotta be next.
DeleteOh those are so cute, I would circle any center piece with them.
ReplyDeleteKind Munir, that is a lovely compliment that I have repeated to Norma. She says thank you and so do I.
DeleteI am a great admirer of whatness.
ReplyDeleteMe too --there is wonder in universal quiddity-- as I admire you.
DeleteOh, loved the painted stones and your poem
ReplyDeleteSee ya
Happy housepainting, Angel! June can't come too soon.
DeleteI like the way your words kind of slide off of each other, like water along a creek. You paint pure beauty with words, Geo.
ReplyDeleteMost kind, Robyn. Thanks!
DeleteThose rocks rock - what a good idea, and excellent execution.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jenny! You rock too.
DeleteWhat a cracker of a creation! I'm very impressed, they're so homely and personal - they'd be a beauty of an addition in our garden!
ReplyDeleteThanks Helena. They're good for helping grandkids identify plants too.
DeleteWhat a beautiful way to mark the rows in my veggie plot
ReplyDeleteThank you! And best wishes on your garden.
