I’ve been getting closer and closer to the subject recently.  This one might be good for Halloween.

I’ve noticed that weeds, when you view them from some distance, look like weeds.  But when you get close to them they don’t seem to be so much weeds as miniature beauties of some unknown variety.

They have flowering parts and graceful, colorful leaves.

Weeds are really smart.  They often feature flight-worthy mechanisms to transport the seeds away from the mother plant.  Something like sending a kid off to college (or does the kid escape to college?)

Do they look to you as if they are dancing?

This next one is titled ‘Echo’.

And finally here is what started this whole venture into looking closely at weeds a few days ago.

I think weeds are God’s way of keeping us in our place.  All we have to do is look at them to see they have standing too.
