What light pierces
it fires,
warning the eye:
Look fast —
but a moment’s sun
blazes
through this glowing cup,
this petal’d Chartres.

Lovely way to start this gray, damp, rainy Wednesday. I love zinnias. 🙂

Thanks, Judy! You sure have had the ups and downs of summer there!

The flowers with your verbal pointers have sent the sensation of sun falling through the window across the ocean. It’s raining steadily here, so quite a blessing.
(The spellcheck plus some lax typing on my part turned ‘verbal’ into ‘feral’ – luckily I caught it, because you’d have puzzled over ‘your feral pointers’!)

“Your feral pointers” would have sent me scrambling to Google, wondering if this were another intriguing bit of wording from the UK! Spellcheck has its light side. So glad you got a bit of this zinnia sunshine across the ocean — and what a miracle of our time! I hope the rain has let up.
