Little Globes Like Little Worlds

The Globe Thistle, within it lies it’s own little world.  Like a little planet suspended over its bed, they float above the rest of the garden.

 Tiny blooms begin to explode on the globe surface.

Drawing close those that rely on the nectar the tiny flowers produce.

 The beauty isn’t lost after the flower dies as the shape alone and seeds to come continues to bring new life and an  interesting feature to the garden.

 Soon to wither yet knowing it has provided food to another species.

 Only to one day bloom again to feed those who are attracted to it’s beauty.

Not just another flower, but another world
where it has found balance so that it may add something
back to that which it is rooted.

Finding a way in your world to give something back
to help bring balance to those around you.  Whether in
the bloom of your life or going to seed, you have something
to share.
