Stars In My Garden

WHEN EXPLORING THE WONDERS of the environment with a microscope, camera or naked eye, it is sometimes easy to find universes within universes beyond comprehension of the finite mind. Atoms and molecules are forever shifting as cells gather and transform into objects. These objects do not exist separately from the space that surrounds them. A simple flower is a collection of petals and leaves rooted to the earth and nourished by the sky where sun and rain synchronize. The hydrangea with a lacey cap in my front yard is a piece of the cosmos that cannot be measured simply or captured in a box. In gardens everywhere there are flowers amid stars and stars amid the flowers.
