Found Things

Walk into my house, cast your eyes about for a moment and you might notice the little bits of outside-brought-inside.
Coming home from the morning stroll with my beloved dog usually means emptying pockets and pouches filled with treasure that caught my eye and I just couldn't leave behind: leaves with amazing shapes, some tattered and torn, others faded to hues only found in nature; a beautiful twig that just begged to be included; feathers that have been trodden on a thousand times and now sit like proud jewels on my desktop.
Open any book on any shelf and no doubt a flower will come tumbling out,r eady for its close up.
