Shadow of a sunflower on the road/ Sombra de girasol en el camino 🌻 - Shadow Hunters Contest - SMASh 369 [ENG-ESP]
Hello, shadow friends!!!
I love walking and letting beauty surprise me. In the midst of everyday life, I witness wonderful events that no one notices except me. I think, in some way, such occurrences make me feel special and blessed; privileged would be the best way to describe them.
And this Monday in April, one of these "natural miracles" happened. As I was walking down the street, my gaze was caught by the shadows of a small patch of sunflowers I found along the way. I immediately grabbed my phone to try to capture the beauty of the event, and this is the result I can now share with you in terms of images: sunflowers projected onto the ground by the afternoon sun, with all the thirst for shadow, distinguished by their silhouette like an academic artist's drawing.
On another note, while I was selecting the photos I would ultimately include in the post, this poem, inspired by the shadows of sunflowers (my favorite flowers), emerged, still moved by the precious surprise.
I love shadows as an expressive and symbolic resource in my creative output, and even more so when they invade me from the physical plane into the spiritual realm, provoking verse. Here is the result:
A sun rolls,
the shadow sings
flowers in a spell
of silence.
Absent space
created by my eyes
to the elemental
spin of the earth.
Naked,
it reaches the other side,
so much
so that it merges
with me.
So, by dint of shadow and verse, I bid you farewell, wishing you the best of days.

Hola, amigos de la sombra!!!
Amo caminar y dejar que la belleza me sorprenda. En pleno andar cotidiano, ser testigo de eventos maravillosos de mi que nadie se percata excepto yo. Creo que , de algún modo , tales sucesos me hacen sentir especial y bendecida, privilegiada sería el mejor calificativo.
Y este lunes de abril sucedió uno de estos "milagros naturales ". Mientras andaba por la calle, mi mirada quedó atrapada por las sombras de una pequeña parcela de girasoles que encontré en el camino. Enseguida tomé mi móvil para intentar capturar la belleza del evento y este es el resultado que ahora puedo compartir con ustedes en cuanto a imagen: girasoles proyectados en la tierra por el sol de la tarde, con toda la sed de la sombra, distinguidos pe su silueta como un dibujo artístico académico.
Por otra parte, mientras seleccionaba las fotos que incluiría finalmente en el post, surgió este poema inspirado en las sombras de los girasoles ( mis flores favoritas) aún conmovida por la preciosa sorpresa.
Amo las sombras como recurso expresivo y simbólico dentro de mi producción creativa, y más , cuando del plano físico me invade en el orden espiritual hasta provocar el verso.
He aquí el resultado:
Rueda un sol,
la sombra canta
flores en hechizo
de silencio.
Espacio ausente
creado por mis ojos
al giro elemental
de la tierra.
Desnuda
alcanza
el otro lado,
tanto
que se confunde
conmigo.
Así, a fuerza de sombra y verso me despido, deseándoles el mejor de los días.

Absolutely stunning flowers, and the shadows they made. I loved the poem.
Thank you so much for leaving this comment. I love it. Hugs of light.
How could the sunflowers not bloom at your passing?
How could they not lower their crowns at your passing?
How could they not illuminate your footsteps with their shadows?
How can I not sigh when your light kisses me? How can I not reverence the sun that you are? My soul sings with the caress of your being. ❤️
And then I just sigh at this...
And my soul trembles
❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely love sunflowers, my mom would always plant them all over her yard. They're my favorite flowers too! That was a great poem! Lo escribiste en Espanol?
Thanks, my friend. And yes, the poem is in spanish
Hablo espanol mucho mejor que lo esbribo, estuve la mayoria de los anos noventa in Chile y Puerto Rico.
Ah pues, un gusto que me escribas ahora en español. Abrazos
Thanks a lot 🙇🏻♀️🙏🏻
You're welcome!
