Join a daily celebration of poetry and the arts. This blog gives voice to the academics, the arts, creativity, expression and the pursuit of TRUTH. All art forms, all academic interests are timeless reflections and revelations of the human condition. Passion, poetry and the arts fuel the creative fires that move me to expression and deep gratitude. My published book of poems, THE WIND AND THE WILLOW is available at Barnes and Noble and online booksellers nationally and internationally.

Sublime is exactly the right word, I think.
I love "a purple night" and "petals, leaf and stem in green..." wonderful! I have always loved an iris. :)
A flower, yes Dave, sublime is a fitting word. Delicate, bold in color, fully in the moment, a transcendent beauty that awakens sensibilities.
Rene, Petals of deep purple touched with indigo - the pursuit of the night be known... its journey to light.
Sublime, indeed, "Bathed in the passion of this day's light"! Gorgeous!
I must ask, did you photoshop this picture, or are these particular irises that intense in color? Either way, they're lovely.
Karen, that is what I found to be almost unbelievable, they are that very color - no photoshop enhancement... only nature's perfection.
Reminds me Kilmer's line from Trees:
"Only God can make a tree."
