Gathering lichen,
seeking the wisdom of stones—

    Nice shot! Lichen is cool. Don’t know why it has developed such bright colors. Is there a survival benefit? It sure photographs well!

    These look like what we call mushrooms after a lot of rain.

    Happy Thanksgiving!!! Such a simple shot but very nice- nature’s colors and textures are always beautiful. I, of course, love your haiku. Mickie 🙂
