Feast for the Eyes



Every autumn, when  brilliant red bushes, bursting with intense color, can be seen, I make a mental note to buy one for our own yard.




So far, it hasn't happened, for whatever reason.


It's called a "Burning Bush" and for good reason. Its red color is intense.

The ones in this post are located, believe it or not, right outside Target.



Truly, being able to see such a gorgeous bush is a tremendous gift.

My heart overflows with gratitude to God to be able to see. 


That, and so many other things in life, is what I want to thank Him for today.


HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A BURNING BUSH?

No I haven't seen anything like this and it is beautiful. I have lovely jasmine outside in my front yard and although it is white the smell is wonderful!

I have four dwarf burning bushes at the side of my house. At our other house we had a great big one that was just beautiful. I agree with you and thank God often for my eyes that I may see the beauty of His creation.

Such vivid colors!!! Spring is nice but I think autumn might trump it with shades of fire!

Wow! What gorgeous colors. We have those here, and I also love azaleas in spring when they are bursting with blossoms.
