Quotations from Virginia Woolf, often (but not always) linked to flowers, usually inspired by what is in bloom, and accompanied by my photos and artwork or that of friends. If a photo is not attributed, I took it. (Quotations are from the standard American editions: mostly the annotated Harcourt Brace series edited by Mark Hussey)

Purple World: May 22, 2015
This is our world, lit with crescents and stars
of light. And great petals half transparent block the openings like purple
windows. Everything is strange. Things
are huge and very small. The stalks of
flowers are thick as oak trees. Leaves
are high as the domes of vast cathedrals.
(The Waves 14)
