A thing of beauty is a joy forever

How many stories are there in the stones? Each individual stone has it’s story. I have my own story, for each individual stone: how they came into my life, how long I held on to them for, how I shaped them for one project, saved a leftover bit, and eventually incorporated it into the current project.

The stars you know, they are scattered like sand upon a beach. Like leaves tossed by the wind. Like leaves tossed by a wind. And the image as a wholeness, tells a story.

Follow the flagstone spiral path and it will take you away, on a journey to meet the Wizard.

The language-like patterns of the bark on a tree. Peel off that bark, find worm trails and insect scratches, reminding us once again of written language. The bark, as well as the worms and insects, is self-built with no manual, except for DNA, a language of life. And 90 percent of all DNA is non-coding, unused, so-called “junk dna”. What great stories do we all contain, as yet unbeknownst?

 

And the Mythical Magical Flagstone Spiral here–is it a double spiral, like unto our DNA?

Or is it a double rainbow, possibly the luckiest of all Earth Omens, and the cheeriest?

Like with leaves scattered, like with leaves upon the trees in a forest, these stones show us repetition with variation. Generally, each stone you see here was a decision. What color goes here, what shape go there. Do I want a burgundy stone, or a yellow one, a dot or a dash? But happy accident and serendipity are part of the play too. An inch of stone chips off unintentionally–all good. They’re birds now, happy birds. Sometime mistakes like this, opportunity steaks, I like to call them, sometimes these mistakes lead to a big change,a joyous new direction.

The dots and dashes may tell a story in mores code. Or binary coding. And wait, this is all dots and dashes, so it’s binary…..but it’s multi color, so it’s rainbow.I’m not saying that means something, but I sometimes suspect a lot of things have more meaning than we can immediately see.

Maybe if we calculate infinity, we’ll make it back to ONE, I don’t know fo’ sho tho.

but yolo fomo so go loco cocoa, in Kokomo

it’s Elf Language. I use stones to write my poetry using Elf Language, the significance of the shape patterns, color patterns and the dots and dashes is just Elf Language. The poetry thusly encoded is a song I wrote at age 12. It still slaps.
