Happy Solstice “Listen, dear heart” said the bear to the child, “Listen while the forest slumbers, and all appears as in death. On this, the longest night, winter’s solstice. Listen, for something is stirring within the heart of the trees” And she listened, holding her child’s breath as snow flakes drifted down like sugar. For within every tree, dreams were unfolding, and warm buttery light was gleaming, for spring was sleeping, stirring, dreaming. The child nodded, she understood. The bear and the child, curled up together. Their dreams entwining as they slept. The winter wind, and mushrooms rings, hollow trees, and crystal wings, the rising sap, and sparrows song. .. #solstice #winterfairytale #wintersolstice #fairytale #illustration #classicillustration #enchantedforest #bear #fantasyart #folklore #folklore https://www.instagram.com/p/B6UVjIGDd7e/?igshid=48hclzje9yuy

El lenguaje de las flores- kate greenaway 4-final

El arte de elegir flores es similar al arte de dar, por primera vez, un nombre especial, un apodo al querido, al amado, al amigo. En cada pétalo, en los colores alegres del brote, en el húmedo pistilo, se esconden las intenciones. Adelántese a ellas, y no deje que, silenciosamente, su floral obsequio lo delate.
