Resurrection Fern
Posted on | March 1, 2007 | 4 Comments
I feel down today. Work sucks. I get very angry when my efforts are discounted. I have a midterm that I am nervous about. The weight of the move is starting to strangle me, but I know all of this negative energy is generated by my mood issues.
To make myself happy, I am going to post this image. It’s from Mills Ave, near our old Delany Park duplex. I first noticed these ferns when we lived down there, and their cycle and that they go to sleep when things are dry. In truth, the fern withers down to conserve moisture, and although it may look dead, it is just waiting for the next rain so it can spring up and paint the trees green.
I feel wilted today. Perhaps I just need some rain.

That is beautiful. I used to live right near the science center. Lovely area.

I’ll send some of our rain your way; we’ve got it for the next 2 days.

that looks like a snobby old lady who is wearing one of those long elegant scarves around her neck…. I like that picture…. I would hang it in my livingroom
