It is a landscape made
Of sparse rain and heat
Of sparse rain and heat
Yet over time,
This brush and paint
Create a land
Of uncommon beauty
Like the dabs of colour
Falling on canvas
Directed by
The pointillist’s hand
Like the activities of us
In the day-to-day of living
Zabriskie Point
California, United States of America
California, United States of America
Taken during travels, 2009
And everything I know just fades away
And when a wildflower grows it picks its space
And that’s the way it is when nature plays its lovely hand
We’ll understand everything
And when a wildflower grows it picks its space
And that’s the way it is when nature plays its lovely hand
We’ll understand everything
Everything, everything
~ Sheryl Crow
Wildflower
From the album, Wildflower
As I edited this image, Sheryl Crow’s plaintive voice rang through my head. It was tempting to post this verse alone, but in the end I settled for the title.
The words finally came when I discovered today’s WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge is (Extra)ordinary.
