Unrequited Love

Black And White Photography

Unrequited Love“I love the ocean, wide-open space and trees, but I’m not a gardener or anything like that. I think I may be, eventually. I was raised in the city, so I don’t have that skill set, but my heart is more with the dirt than the concrete. It’s an unrequited love with nature – a one-way love affair.” –  David Duchovny

In the “history and language of flowers” one of the meanings of the Daffodil is unrequited love.  I think there is a relationship of unrequited love between Winter and Spring.  The buds and blooms of Spring were certainly pouting after our recent dusting of snow.

To see another photograph of a Daffodil covered in snow visit my personal blog at: Robyn Graham Photography.

One flower at a time, please

 however small the face.

Two flowers are one flower

too many, a distraction.

Three flowers in a vase begin

to be a little noisy

Like cocktail conversation,

everybody talking.

A crowd of flowers is a crowd

of flatters (forgive me).

One flower at a time.  I want

to hear what it is saying.

Isolation

“Too much self-centered attitude, you see, brings, you see, isolation. Result: loneliness, fear, anger. The extreme self-centered attitude is the source of suffering.”

~ Dalai Lama
