irises: no eyes, no rainbows, no goddesses

Irises are blind as eyeless cave bats...

and colorful as a rainbow... to us.

 

 Tragic isn’t it ... for them?

To be so beautiful...

and not have eyes to see their own beauty....

We see what they don’t see ... in their no-color, sightless, world...

 

Irises are like so many people I know..

shining bright in wonder ...full ... technicolor,

beatific, brightly, beautiful, brilliance.

With “makes you want to cry”,

“How could God have made such beauty” ... gorgeousness.

 

With succulent,

 ripe

 first peach of summer taste

 and with first peach  of sumer juices running down my cheeks, sweetness...

And, they don’t even know!

 

Close your eyes...

see your beauty.
