Dainty
flowers bowing
their petals earlier
to the sun setting in the west
feel it
eyes feast
on heavenly
skies painted magenta
by angels preparing the sun
to sleep

The Sacred Beauty of Art
At 221 Pineville Matthews Road, you'll find a tree adorned with swatches of beautific and magnificent colors - appearing as knitted sleeves. Called a "yarn bomb tree," it marks the entrance to the "Boho Pad," an Airbnb owned by Amir Reza Behdani and Olga Behdani. Inspiration for this artwork is a melding of the Behdani's Sufi-philosophy of "love and being one with nature" and the creations of Rachol Logan, whose artistry was learned in Australia. The ongoing work-in-progress was started six months ago; the Behdani's have contracted to have her create three more yarn bombs on their property.
