If you’ve been following along on my winding path of food and beauty and Pachamama for awhile, you know I love to take photographs. I meandered slowly through countless images of my days outside in the garden and on this earth, and decided last month to have some printed up as cards.

Today I’ve been spending some sweet down time packaging them all up into sets. Living in this tiny town and rural area of southwestern Colorado, I’ve collected my packaging materials over the last few weeks on forays out of the area, and am happy and relieved it all came together today.

One set, “IN THE GARDEN”, eight favorite photographs from the last two year’s gardens are printed on blank note cards. Dear reader, you may even remember some of these from blog posts past.

Inspired by the stunning world around us, and this poem:

In the Garden

listen
within this moment
winging inside
a conscious rhythm surfaces
in birdsong
our breath
tree shadows
our hearts
green dappled light
tomato leaf and garlic scent
dirt and water
the steps we take
earth on our knees
the whole Universe
inside us
dreams become real
a star bursts in daylight
the seven sisters whirl
across the heavens
and tree roots move
very slowly
deeper as our path
reunites with the Mother

Here’s a close up detail – an itsy bitsy crab spider caught in the morning sun on a red clover flower:

Cards are 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″ with a lovely soft matte finish on card stock, blank inside, for your own inspirations to be written. Envelopes too. Perfect for your garden loving friends and family! Wouldn’t someone you know – cherish this Gourd blossom’s eye view of the garden?
