looking for refuge /
then just feast your eyes on the /
luminous tulip
(Notes: I was awestruck when I saw this tulip catching the late afternoon sun. Lit up like a jewel…and not just the tulip, but the green leaves growing from it. I remember Thich Nhat Hahn’s saying: “I take refuge in the present moment.” In times of trouble, to fully take refuge, in what is right before us. I centered the image to catch both the lit flower and its lit leaves. Whenever I see this, I remembering the glowing feeling.)
