Making Rainbows Blindly

Making Rainbows Blindly

From the darkness of yet another hotel room
he watched her
as she scattered orange peel, amethysts and
pomegranate seeds
in the wake behind her in the street ..
Just maybe
he thought, before jumping, she might be
making rainbows
and so, instead, he chose to follow blindly ..

Being Me

I have an image of a barefooted lady skipping along  the street with a basket from which she throws purple petals and orange peel and Ruby pomegranate seeds. The why doesn't matter, it is important to her that is all that matters. Love this for its freedom and images x
