Sweet melody of love is heard in silence of flowers. Silence of flowers opens to us a hidden beauty of Creation - a window opened to the Heavens of Divine joy and perfection. Mystical alloy of opalescent joy and harmony of graceful shapes gives rise to a miracle - live symbol of Divine love and beauty dropped under humans’ feet.

Fragrant carpet is not bound to the gravity and raises aromas of flowers as a pure sacrifice to God. Among the trees of spring garden, on summer meadows and even in the home kitchen beside the pot of blooming geranium we suddenly recollect the lost Paradise and rejoice from foreboding the forgotten, and we weep of inability to bring back the precious loss.

Yet we can find the lost paradise in our soul, we can enter it again in an instant moment of eternity if we look at an open flower with fresh eyes of quiet and trust, in contemplation of silent mind, listening, imbibing, filling …

A heart filled with love becomes a bright flower when opens itself towards the other, like an image looking for its original in re-creating the unity trough the brokenness of this world. Open heart begins to see the beauty of flowers, as it is kindred to the only Beauty and bears within the wholeness and richness of the bouquet of gifts from the Kingdom of Heaven.

Kissing the meanings of flowers an open and pure heart gives their names to the nous for understanding and joy. Tracery of meanings recognized by heart in the round dance of flowers expresses itself in poetic words spoken to others for unity. The lost gift of Adam awakes in baby’s prattle: “Mom, see how beautiful is this flower!”.

Let us look by pure eyes on the Divine dance of silent flowers and call their beauty.
