Ragtag Daily Prompt: Morass

According to the Oxford Dictionary Morass means an area of muddy or boggy ground.

Here’s my photo of a muddy area on the Wagon Loop at Anne Springs Close Greenway. So muddy the horses left their shoe impressions.

Horseshoe
prints

And according to Webster Thesaurus.com synonyms include: chaos, quagmire, tangle, and snarl to name a few.

So here’s my pick for a tangled mixed up mess.

Weekend Sky: Mid-December — See the Arrow? The Airplane?

Is it a bird?
an Airplane?
What do y’all think?

We observe the sky and are amazed at the views we see. I love the following poem about Clouds.

Clouds

I pause watching the clouds roll by.

Thankful I am alive to see how truly

amazing and beautiful they are. As soft

and fluffy as a feathered pillow. One day

I’ll rest my head on them remembering

the day I dreamt it were possible.

Cell Pic Sunday: December 18, 2022

Instead of a normal cell pic, I am choosing to share a collage I made on my cell phone. The top two photos were taken on a cell phone whereas the bottom photo was taken on my Canon Rebel EOS T3i camera. Hope this is okay since it was created on my cell phone.

CMMC: Violet or White Color – At the Gibson House

It’s been cold and rainy all week. On Wednesday, Coleman and I decided to try to beat the rain and ventured out to visit Forest at Anne Springs Close Greenway Horse Stables. It was sure cold 🥶 though. However, Coleman enjoyed his time visiting the horses. [Those pictures are saved for another post].

We spotted these Violet and White Flowers by the Gibson House on the way back to the car whilst trying not to get the camera wet. So naturally I had to capture them with a few snapshots. After all I did have my camera around my neck.

Salvia lyrata

It is sometimes grown in gardens for its attractive foliage and flowers, though it can prolifically seed, easily becoming a lawn weed.

FOTD: December 3, 2022 – Viola

Haven’t traveled too far since Covid-19 lockdown, however, in early 2020 I visited relatives in Texas. While there I would walk around the neighborhood or wherever the opportunity arose.

I spotted these lovely flowers while walking around my Aunt’s neighborhood in Abilene, Texas. It was taken with the cell phone I had at the time, an iPhone 11 Pro Max.

FOTD: Discarded Autumn Bouquet

As I walked around my complex today I noticed these discarded flowers sitting out back of one of the apartments. I wondered why someone would just place them out their back door and not throw them away if they didn’t want them any more. It appeared as if there wasn’t much life to them anymore.
