Good Evening All! π How’s everyone doing thus far?
Every year when the Poui trees bear their radiant flowers on the isles I usually take images of it to share on the blog and categorized it under “Spring Time” since we here on the islands only experience two seasons which is rainy season and dry season.
Usually rainy season starts like within the late parts of April but unfortunately that has changed drastically. Right now we are still in the dry season. The climate has changed a lot and the sun is more hot than before. Mostly everything has dried up. Including the Poui trees in our yard sadly. They didn’t birth much flowers at all and it was pretty sadden for me.
It shows that our time on earth is quickly coming to an end. The earth is ready for redemption. She’s dying. Dying for new life. For restoration as we are along with her. My spirit felt grieved when I saw nothing but dry leaves on the ground below the tree but I still found joy in the midst of it all. I was happy to be alive to still capture His creations. It was a little different this year for me where this is concerned but I still admire the lessons learnt from nature’s various stages of change and growth. Be blessed & uplifted! God bless β€
Poui on the bank
Sally π On the mountains I will lift my eyes to the One who sent me there…
Second Poui Tree π¦ I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness. β€ Let Go and let God … Jesus I adore you β€ Stay focused solider! I look to you Lord! I choose to smile in the midst of pain. The joy of the Lord continues to give me strength! β€ Our pet fowl Peace and her Spouse relaxing the bamboo lol!
She mourns over her waters that has been defiled by manβs idols,
She mourns over her mountains where man lighted their fires,
She mourns over her streets, where the blood of man streams like moving waters
She mourns at the skies that is plastered by manβs pollution,
She mourns at her inhabitants that grow weak from starvation from man made construction.
Sheβs broken and deserted as she weeps on the mountain top,
Desiring to be one with her inhabitants again.
Through her non stop tears, βWill this ever end?β
It will end with an end to the new beginning.
Of eternal life restored forever with our Creator!
He shall wipe away your tears and remove all your sorrows,
Thereβd be NO MORE curse! Look up for your redemption draw nigh!
Look up! Here comes Joy as every knee bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD forevermore!

Bonus Piece:Β
I see nature crying on behalf of mankindβs sins that has stricken her weak and turned her likeness from sun to night. Sheβs dark all around and continues to mourn in silence sometimes. Sheβs angry as her fist crashes against the mountains and her ice melt like wax in a fire furnace. The birth of new life emerges from the inside and soon will spring out like a river. It will run down over the hills and valleys and overflow upon the mountains. It will run down throughout the cities, villages, the islands and to every seen and unseen thing above and between. See, He is doing a new thing! Yes! Iβm so excited for itβs offspring! Rejoice evermore and give thanks in advance! Your Father knows what He is doing so hang unto His everlasting promises. β¨

One day while looking out the window at my Fatherβs creations whilst I held a conversation with Him in my mind about them through His Word, He made me stopped and looked at a tree on top of the mountain. The thing I always saw that tree and you know just say it as the tree on top the mountain but that day He really wanted me to see surpass that. Through the eyes of the Spirit He showed me the face of a weeping woman formed out in the tree. I saw her facial structure, her nose, her eyes and her lips are slightly opened as a space between the branches formed the tear running down her face. I was like, βWow, Iβve never seen that before! Iβve been watching at that sane tree for years and never saw that weeping face!β He revealed to me that the nation is mourning because of the sin in the land. Not only for the island but for the entire earth itself. The earth mourns. Itβs alive and has feelings like we do. The earth also sings and rejoices in the presence of God. This is mentioned in several chapters of Isaiah, Psalms and throughout the book of the other prophets. When He showed and reminded me of this I was inspired immediately and thatβs how the title was birthed, βThe Weeping Tree.β The words of the God given piece didnβt came right away until a few weeks after. J Β The part two of this which is categorized as βMirco Poetryβ came instantaneously after when I had concluded βThe Weeping Treeβ poem. All honor and glory to God forever! Thank you Jesus! π
Yellow Jep nest/hive the Lord revealed to me that morning, that I was unaware of. When I told mom she was shocked lol as we praised God for His protection always, for we are always below this seasoning tree. πΒ
The pawpaw tree laden with babies in FULL abundance! The paint bucket you see is what we put over the opening of her truck from water getting on the inside whenever rain falls. This occurred when we gave her a *hair trim* more like a tree trimming lol. πΒ
First Avocado Tree out of 3.Β
Paw Paw leaf. This can be brewed into tea. It’s also used for medicinal purposes as well. π Gotta try brewing some tea soon! πΒ
#2 Avocado tree {inside the garden}Β
The peeping Jamaica Seasoning bush. *Yes I renamed it somehow lol!* she’s too cute! β€Β
Aloes.Β
My fav view of the backyard! It’s been a while since I’ve captured the sky/clouds…Β
Meet Peace the fowl of the family! π she’s the most peaceful hen I’ve EVER met. She loves chatting, eating, sunbathes, dirt bathes in the garden *which is not allowed but I give her a bligh with her companions from time to time* , taking quick runs behind you when she see’s her temporal owners come outside, sounding the alarm to get attention and just love being fed peacefully to create some uh….lovely platform pieces that gets mom angry from time to time π lololol!!! Ah, the joys! β€Β Β
And well everyone knows Max! Do keep him in prayer while he continues to be healed from a puncture in his neck from a fight with a pit bull and mange. He’s recovering very good thus far and the wound it has closed up a lot. His hair has started growing back as well on his ears and lower feet. All praises to God for answering our prayers on His creation behalf.Β
Death is beautiful when you die with/in Christ. β€
Found these yellow gems just below the cashew tree *don’t know the name* & the white one’s are from the Jamaica seasoning bush, just above the first pic of these yellow flowers. π
Portugal from the tree located to the front of our large yard π I was stunned when I saw so much babies in birth at the same time! She hasn’t bared this much in a while and that I take for a sign of something great! π
Blessings to all in Jesus name! π My niece is the one that really pushed me to take out these pics of the mist covering the mountains for that day she was really excited to see it. She said, “See if yuh get some pics!” I quickly ran, picked up the phone and this is what was captured…
Hi all! These photos were both taken by my bestie/sister in Christ {Dee} and myself after a day at the gardens studying the Lord’s Word, we decided to trek up the hill that led us into these treasures the more we ascended into God’s hilltop garden β€ Be blessed! π byes!Β
Nature was on my mind during the production of this piece, like for instance the sea, mist and trees. You can see all three grandeur’s when you stare at the piece longingly. To be honest it wasn’t one of my favorites and was considering of casting it into the ARTFAIL BIN…butttt I guess things always turn around for the better.
Colors utilized:- Green and blue neon or teal?{I really can’t remember the other color} Art technique:- Paintbrush swirl applicant.Β
WARNING:- ALL ART IS INSPIRED BY GOD.Β
P.S- The top left of the art got utterly smudged, due to not drying the water out of my brush tolerably. And that orange that you see intertwining with the green? LOL! My brush hair dye decided to run all over that part of the painting that day! LOL! πΒ
