One Saturday morning before my routine browsing of the local farmers market in beautiful Forsyth Park, Savannah, I decided to enjoy a mocha latte at a favorite little cafe’, The Sentient Bean. I asked for coffee but what I got in return was a work of art. Almost to good to drink but I did have to buy those fresh organic vegetables. I think the barista must have worked at SCAD, the local art school, or something because I had to know how a leaf appeared in my cup. I imagined the young lady creating the Mona Lisa in the next customer’s cup. Oddly when I poured Coffeemate into my cup at home, the contents completely changed color, no Van Gogh there. Ok, enough pondering, that latte was good.

Waiting
Spring in Savannah, Georgia is such a beautiful place. Walking the squares in the historic district is one of my joys. I live just off Washington Square. I happened by an April wedding in Washington Square one afternoon and caught a glimpse of this rare moment. A bride in waiting. A vintage car is her carriage, her company is seated with anticipation as the minstrels play. She longs for that which Spring carries in her bosom…new life, a new life with the man she loves. Waiting for that moment, her moment.

Weekly Photo Challenge: A Spring Thing
A Prayer in Spring
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers to-day;
And give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep us here
All simply in the springing of the year.Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.And make us happy in the darting bird
That suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts in with needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid air stands still.For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfill.Robert FrostWordPress Weekly Photo Challenge: Spring!
