As the summer is slowly fading away
I rescued a few pieces that were unwanted
and unloved...
I found a very large urn
that was in pieces
left for years outdoors
and now has found a new place in my home...
The owner had no use for things
in his backyard
and well of course I fell in " love " with
each piece.
{ the base will be in a later post}
Every inch of this urn
melted my heart as I filled
it with twigs and dark colored succulents...
I saved a few smaller fragments
that fell off during transporting it home.
I placed them on my table along with
an old rusted chain
that was hanging in the tree...
My heart stopped for a moment
when the homeowner said
I could have anything in the yard
as it was meaningless to him...
I thought again about what is valuable to me
and what is worthless to another.
The precious treasures of my heart
are the simple pieces that life offers...
I cherish love...
I cherish the discarded...
I cherish the unwanted...
The beauty overwhelmed me
and I still have to find a place for the beautiful
base of this piece of perfection.
This week I will be linking up to my
lovelies in blog land who inspire my heart
each and every week...
