This back alley was in quite a sad state… garbage and broken beer bottles were strewn about, all the windows on the ground level were smahed and boarded up. The walls were painted with graffiti that were illegible and faded with the passing of time. It was quite a fantastic spot! / / More in this series: / Urban Artist / / / Sandman / / / The Scribe / / / Tagged / / / Writing’s on the wall / / / The View / / / Bubblegum Graffiti / / / Marley / / Visit my website On The Rock Photography

The lighting on this shot made one eye shine more than the other like he is staring at me with one eye. He is checking out my lemon balm mint blooms. / This art work is registered copyright© 2008 and any copyright infringement will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law in the USA and International.

Plant: Grey-green, square-stemmed perennial 50-120cm tall, from spreading rootstock. / Leaves: paired, lance-shaped, toothed, stalked, 6-10cm long, smaller upwards. / Flowers: Lavender to purple or yellowish pink, 2-3.5cm long, tubular, with a 3-lobed lower lip and a slender, fuzzy, 2-lobed upper lip tipped with 2 projecting stamens; flowers in head-like clusters. / Blooms: June to September / Fruits: 4 small nutlets / Habitat: upland wooded and open sites / Native from Quebec to BC, to the southern US European settlers and native peoples gathered this aromatic plant for flavoring salads, cooked vegetables and stews and for making a pleasant minty tea. Dried powered leaves were sprinkled on food to keep flies and other insects away and were rubbed onto hair, skin, clothing and even favorite horses as perfume. The plant’s fragrance was likened to that of the citrus flavor in Earl Grey tea, giving rise to the name Wild Bergamot.

Thursday, December 11, 2008, is a red-letter, or should I say white-letter, day here in the Deep South. Beginning about 4 a.m., snow (or sneaux as the Cajun French in us likes to spell it) began to fall softly and to accumulate. It’s been 20 years since our last snowfall, and we are having a ball. After the devastation of Hurricane Gustav in September of this year, we feel blessed by this gentle touch of nature on our ravaged land. It’s like a healing balm for us. Some of you may remember seeing this angel in the post-Gustav storm picture where my house was not even visible with all the downed trees (fifteen in all)! Here’s the same angel from a different angle. I took it around 5:30 a.m. before daylight when the snow was coming down in big flakes. I’m so happy today, and I’d like to send special thanks to Elaine Farmer who prayed a prayer of blessing for me only yesterday. Elaine, I think this is an answer to your sweet prayer. Love to all! Bonnie P.S. Those of you who have snow on a regular basis might think I’m silly, but this is a BIG thing for those of us who experience this white wonder only a handful of times in a life span.

(UPDATE: The previous owners of our place told me this was Bee Balm…I have since made a friend who is a horticulturist who insists it is the CORN FLOWER. Either way…I love it!) This is such a lovely perennial in my garden that just keeps spreading every year and showing up in strange places throughout the property. The bee population seems to really love the fantastic blue colour of this particular variety and this part of the garden gets very busy…or should I say buzzy… “Several Bee Balm species have a long history of use as medicinal plants by many Native Americans. They recognized the strong antiseptic action of these plants, and used poultices made from the plant for skin infections and wounds. A tea made from the plant was also used to treat mouth and throat infections. Bee Balm is the natural source of the antiseptic thymol, the primary active ingredient in modern commercial mouthwash formulas.” /

Bee Balm is another favorite of mine which actually is an herb that grows in my garden. Of course being red doesn’t hurt. They’re around 4 feet high and very majestic and usually flower once but linger on for quite a while.

Monarda (Bee Balm)

She walks with downcast eyes / She speaks with hopeless drone / Her pain is seeping everywhere / a long and silent moan. Her hurts are real enough / for all they’re hidden from plain site / Her darkness is a shroud she wears / To keep away the light. So caught up in her grief is she / that something passes by / unnoticed, such a pity / there are angels by her side. And though she’s unaware of them, / they watch her as she goes / from place to place / unconsolable / Their love for her just grows. They keep her safe / they watch her steps / to see she does no harm / and all along she’s unaware / Of angel’s loving balm. / -Songwriter Featured in Feminine Intent (LIMIT TWO IMAGES PER DAY)

I just really liked the way these petals looked close up on the dark background. Almost abstract in a sultry sort of way.
