chicory...

chicory

This is the flower of the common chicory...
a plant prolific in fields and along roadsides
in my area of the world.
It is also used to make a coffee substitute
when the real thing is not available.

Take a close look at
the gorgeous artistry of our Creator...
don't let your busy life cause you to miss out
on the abundant blessings all around us.

By the way, I love blue flowers,
especially that has a hint of purple.

"The invariable mark of wisdom
is to see the miraculous in the common."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
