| I wonder who left these Tibetan prayer flags on the Brooklyn Bridge. They're traditional Lung Ta (means 'powerful horse') flags, which are traditionally strung horizontally so the colors are left to right in this order: blue (sky), white (air/wind), red (fire), green (water), and yellow (earth). These had evidently been there for a while when I saw them last week and I hope they continue to be left in peace. [It's Ruby Tuesday. To see more, go here. It's also Our World Tuesday, here.] |

ABC Wednesday—F is for "flags"
| My brother David (who left us two years ago) had Tibetan prayer flags indoors and out at his home. Shortly before he died, I said something about them— and he gave me several strings of these colorful flags. I don't have an "outdoors" at my place, but when I finally figure out where to put them, I'll share. (And thanks again, David!) [To see more ABC Wednesday posts, go here.] |
