Jacaranda

A   L   O   H   A !
How to Capture the Glory, the FEELING 
of Jacaranda in Bloom?

“We all have a tree 
inside us. 
Finding it is just 
a matter of time.” 

 Sahar Delijani, 
Children of the Jacaranda Tree











Torches of 
Bright Lilac 
in a Green Tree
surrounded 
by aprons of Color!








Bouquets of Flowers


" Do not follow 
the ideas of others, 
but learn to listen
 to the voice within 
yourself. 
Your body and mind
 will become clear 
and you will 
realize the unity 
of all things. "

Dogen








 Each 
a Complete Masterpiece!








" You can't be suspicious
 of a tree, 
or accuse a bird
or a squirrel 
of subversion or 
challenge the ideology
 of a violet. "

 Hal Borland

Thank YOU for being here
                              Warmly, cloudia


"As the poet said, 'Only God can make a tree,'
probably because it's so hard to figure out how to get the bark on."
-Woody Allen
