Psychedelic Sun Storm

One hundred trees blink and wave their eyes hello.
One thousand earthworms weave veils of petrichor.
One million raindrops croon a waltz.

In the eye of the storm,
all these hallucinations seem more true
than the thought I could be loved
by such a miracle as you.

    1. Magic Love Crow does some really fantastic things with her crow series of art. She's been branching out into some fabulous abstract pieces too.
