Go forth, my heart, and seek delight
Linked to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Gardens.
The title is the English translation of a German church hymn, written by Paul Gerhardt and published in 1653:
Geh aus mein Herz und suche Freud
Go forth, my heart, and seek delight
In all the gifts of God’s great might,
These pleasant summer hours:
Look how the plains for thee and me
Have decked themselves most fair to see,
All bright and sweet with flowers.
The trees stand thick and dark with leaves,
And earth o’er all here dust now weaves
A robe of living green;
Nor silks of Solomon compare
With glories that the tulips wear,
Or lilies’ spotless sheen.
Flowers and missiles
I came across this mural in München, Germany (Munich). Intellectually, I understand the juxtaposition between war/war machinery and the beauty found in flowers and traditional ceramics and porcelain. But overall – I am not really convinced that it works for me.

Shapely tulips
The One Word Sunday challenge asked for shape. It’s so drab outside I wanted to look at some colour – and tulips have a very distinguishable shape, too.
