While shopping for groceries, I found this quote displayed in the floral department.
It made me stop and reflect on that busy Saturday afternoon.
It reminded me that beauty surrounds us in ordinary places. We just have to look.
Quote by Theodore Roethke, American Poet, Author, Teacher, 1908-1963. Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1954.
Picture taken at Zupan’s Market, SW Portland, Oregon.
Great quote. Not surprising that it came from Roethke who was all about the gradations of light in his painting. Thanks for sharing.

I’m not sure if I like the quote or the fact that someone in the floral department was creative enough to share it or both … I think I’ll go with both. You have one badass supermarket!
