Stop, Look and Listen!

I know I featured this flower before so I tried to look for it in my files but I could not locate it! I went over the list in the hope that somebody was able to give me the exact name of this plant but I simply went crazy trying to look for it so I gave up. This is that kind of week. The last quarter moon phase where everything is not what it seems. Since the full moon last week where emotions are running high (animals were restless and some of them suffered from diarrhea, plants were both blooming and drying up, people everywhere were restless and civil war erupted in some parts, and the earth trembling and volcanoes spewing. I am not cooking up a doomsday scenario. What I am saying is that although we live in a precarious scenario of 'global warming' etc., the phases of the moon dictates most of our raging emotions. We simply have to consider that we live in a cycle and the moon is just a guide into the cycle of beginning and ending. In this last quarter phase leading to the new moon is the best time to clean up files, restore order in the house (spring cleaning is best at this time!), end messy tasks without all that drama ;-), and prepare for a new beginning next week. Sigh.

This flower (possibly from the lily family) immediately called my attention! But look:

It is really small and hardly noticeable along the fence!
But in macro, everything in it deserves a closer inspection!

The detail of perfection!
And look!
A new one is coming out as well:

And no, it has no scent.
But yes, it sings a soft hypnotic sound of delight.
The delight for a new beginning!
Have a less harried weekend, everyone!

UPDATED! Maia, Anki and Ann generously shared and identified this as an Iris. I googled it and found drop dead images of irises and remembered we do have some in our garden and I have to locate it again in case the dogs ate it! Thanks for the id. ;-)
