Another Lost Angel ?

"Are you a lucky little lady in the City of Light? Or just another lost angel...City of Night ..." No, no .. it's a Desert Evening-Primrose in full blossom. I love to watch their pedals blowing in the wind. The white (Desert) Evening-Primrose produces large white flowers that pinken with age. The green parts of the Evening Primrose were considered tasty by Native Americans. Depending on location, the roots were boiled or roasted and eaten, too. The plant also harbored White Line Sphinx Moth Caterpillars which, when prepared and cooked, were a special treat for the Cahuilla Tribe. Their taste has been described as similar to pork rinds. "I walk into an empty room, And suddenly my heart goes boom. It´s an orchestra of angels, Playing with my heart - yeah ..." April 17, 2010

"I won't be taking any train,
I'll bum a ride today, from someone goin' my way.
I've got the mountains in my eyes,
A rainbow in my pocket, I was bringing to you."
