Fuchsia the Tears of God
In Irish the Fuchsia is called Deora Dé, which translates to English as Tears of God.
Fuchsia is a symbol of elegance, good taste, confiding love and amiability.
Fuchsia
by Katrina Vandenberg
That summer in the west I walked sunrise
to dusk, narrow twisted highways without shoulders,
low stone walls on both sides. Hedgerows
of fuchsia hemmed me in, the tropical plant
now wild, centuries after nobles imported it
for their gardens. I was unafraid,
did not cross to the outsides of curves, did not
look behind me for what might be coming.
For weeks in counties Kerry and Cork, I walked
through the red blooms the Irish call
the Tears of God, blazing from the brush
like lanterns. Who would have thought
a warm current touching the shore
of that stone-cold country could make
lemon trees, bananas, and palms not just take,
but thrive? Wild as the jungles they came from,
where boas flexed around their trunks —
like my other brushes with miracles,
the men who love you back, how they come
to you, gorgeous and invasive, improbable,
hemming you in. And you walk that road
blazing, some days not even afraid to die.

BUCK-TICK ~ rakuen (楽園) ~ irish translation
                                              ~ Na Flaithis ~
“            Is é seo atá na flaithis Ina déanann siad siúd atá i ngrá Croí isteach lena chéile san earrach.
Tír an ghrá, parthas na mbláthanna. Rath i síocháin, fás torthúil, iolraigh. Cad níos mó atá á lorg uait ná seo?
Cathair aisteach, daoine aisteach, Fuil a doirteadh le súile lán de bhrón. Is seanscéal aisling é an áit seo.
Teilifís le guthanna géar agus nimhneach. Clabaireacht folamh, méaldráma. Maidir liomsa, coinním m'aghaidh i bhfolach le deora éadomhain.
Maraíonn páistí Dé a chéile i ngairdín an ghrá. Tugaim súil chaoch ar.. I dtaibhreamh atáim.
Tír an ghrá, is é seo na flaithis. Suirí, sólás, gach aghaidh cosúil toisc nach mbíonn ceann gan miongháire.
Tagann an phlá do-leigheas le piléir. Grá a athraíonn go pian dúinn go léir. Cad níos mó atá á lorg uait ná seo?
Athair séimh le máthair mánla le báisteach dubh le talamh scoite. Maidir liomsa, coinním m'aghaidh i bhfolach le deora éadomhain.
Maraíonn páistí Dé a chéile i ngairdín an ghrá. Tugaim súil chaoch ar.. I dtaibhreamh atáim.
Maraíonn páistí Dé a chéile i ngairdín an ghrá. Tugaim súil chaoch ar. ‘S anseo atáim.            ”
*the italicised line is in the single version only
**this is a singable translation, as accurate to the original meaning as can be achieved while matching it to the melody. If you can pronounce it, feel free to try! Google Translate provides a vague idea of what is typed here, but if anyone would like me to post the english translation of this or any future translations, feel free to ask

フクシア Fuchsia 5月17日の誕生花 「つつましい愛」「信じる愛」 別名「釣浮草」、英語の別名は「Lady’s-eardrop」 英名の別名「貴婦人の耳飾り」の通り、本当にピアスとして生花をつけていてもわからないくらい! 繊細でかわいらしい形のお花です。 そんな姿に似合わず、寒冷地でも逞しくよく育つフクシアはアイルランドでは「神の涙」と呼ばれるそうで、その名はアイルランドの歴史と深く関わっているようです。妖精の国アイルランドのおとぎ話に興味が湧きました。

Fuchsia/ Deora Dé
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Irish for fuchsia is Deora Dé this directly translates to God's tears
If the top of the flower is prest a small drop of the flowers necter falls out.
This looks like tear drop and it is like honey
I thought the resin rain drops would work well for this idea
I cut some papers in the sillouet of the flower and plased the drop in them.
Then I was able to get these interesting photos

The Daily Tulip
The Daily Tulip – News From Around The World
Thursday 6th September 2018
Good Morning Gentle Reader….  I looked at the clock and it said midnight, next second I'm looking at the clock with 3.30am on its face, not worth risking sleep when I get up at 4.00am so out of bed and get met with wet kisses from Bella, as I try to tie my shoes... so out into the dark of the early morning we go, me with a wet face and her with a wagging tail ...we spend the next 30 minutes with me at the end of a leash and Bella dragging me to the next spot to sniff.. finally we make it home, the coffee has brewed, Bella's eaten and is now sound asleep on my foot and I've read the news, so would you like to see what I have discovered?
WRONG WAY WOKING DRIVER, 87, FAILED SURREY POLICE EYE TEST…. An 87-year-old motorist was stopped by police for driving the wrong way down the road - and then failed an eye test. A police car was forced to take evasive action when the man drove the wrong way after pulling out from a junction on to the A3 in Surrey earlier. He was stopped and given a roadside eyesight test, which he failed as he could only read a number plate from 7.3m away. The minimum distance is 20m. Surrey Police said he voluntarily surrendered his driving licence. The man, from Woking, was also reported for two driving offences.
UZBEKISTAN TAX OFFICIALS TO WEAR FAMILY ID BADGES…. Tax officials in Uzbekistan are to be issued with new identity cards which include a photo of family members, it's been reported. Management at the State Tax Service in the country's south-western Bukhara region have approved the new badges to remind officials that they have families at home waiting for them, should they be tempted to "tarnish the reputation of the service", the Kuz.uz news website reports. As well as steering the wearer away from thoughts of corruption, they're also supposed to remind staff of the partnership between tax payer and tax collector as part of Uzbek president Shavkat Mirziyoyev's campaign to improve the tax service and increase tax revenues. However, it's an idea that's been ridiculed on social media in Uzbekistan. According to the Fergana news website, users have called the idea of new badges "stupid" and of no help against corruption. Others said that they may even break data protection laws.
BELFAST MAN SERIOUSLY INJURED BY SHARK OFF COUNTY CORK COAST…. A man from Belfast suffered a "deep flesh wound" after being bitten by a shark off the coast of County Cork on Saturday evening. The man suffered the serious lower arm injury while deep-sea angling. The crew of the angling boat gave the man first aid before he was transferred to a lifeboat, where he got further treatment. Crosshaven RNLI volunteers were called to the scene at 18:00 local time. It is understood the man was angling for sharks and had been trying to unhook one of the fish when he was bitten. "This was more of an angling accident than a shark attack, there was a bit of a struggle when pulling the shark on board," a RNLI spokesman said. "We're not trying to panic anyone." The angling boat Deora Dé, which the man was on board, sailed towards Crosshaven from about eight miles offshore and met with the Crosshaven lifeboat about four miles south of Roche's Point. The lifeboat was then met at Crosshaven by an ambulance and the man was transported to Cork University Hospital. The man was conscious throughout and was able to climb onto the lifeboat without help. It is understood that the fish involved was a blue shark. Although they are the most common species of shark in Irish waters, they rarely bite humans. They usually feed on small fish and squid, and can live for about 20 years.
IKEA INDIA FINED OVER CATERPILLAR IN RICE DISH…. Ikea India has been fined after a customer found a caterpillar in a rice dish served at its store in the southern city of Hyderabad. Abeed Mohammad tweeted about the incident on Friday, tagging the city's municipal authorities. After investigating his complaint, officials on Sunday imposed a fine of $141 (£109) on the furniture giant. The Swedish firm, which opened its first store in India in early August, said it was sorry over the incident. Mr Mohammad's tweet has been widely shared on social media. Hyderabad, a technology hub, is also home to other global companies such as Microsoft, Google and Facebook.
DELAYS AFTER MILK SPILL ON THE A5 CHIRK BYPASS IN WALES…. Motorists are facing delays on one of the busiest roads in north Wales after a milk spillage on the A5 Chirk bypass. The main road between Wrexham and Shrewsbury was shut between the Gledrid and Halton roundabouts after a vehicle spilled six cages of milk. Fire crews had helped with the clear-up following the 06:00 BST incident and the Chirk Bypass reopened at 08:30. North Wales Police have warned of long delays and heavy traffic in the area… and have advised drivers not to cry over spilt milk…
Well Gentle Reader I hope you enjoyed our look at the news from around the world this, morning… …
Our Tulips today are staggeringly beautiful…

All good stuff....But remember it’s a dangerous world we live in
Be safe out there…
