Wonder

Wonder: a feeling of amazement and admiration when taking notice of something quite remarkable.

Nature, in all its forms fills me with wonder. As I see, and admire from my kitchen window, my little basket of strawberry plants. I find it so amazing that the leaves know exactly when to change colour. They're prompted by the cooler nights and shorter days which trigger changes in the leaves which have consequences on their colour.  The productions of green chlorophyll stops and the green fades leaving yellow, orange and red pigments 

The changing colours of leaves fills me with wonder and joy.

”If we meet life with wonder, it’s always new, always fresh. We don’t need experiences - just encounters.” ~ Maggie Ross.


Today, I encountered these colourful strawberry plant leaves and they made me happy.
I'm also putting these tiny strawberry flowers into the Flower Friday group, kindly hosted by Anni/BikerBear.
