On the one hand, it can cause grievous bodily injury if you slip on it. I speak from painful recent experience.
On the other hand, it is insanely beautiful if you take the time to really look at it.
That loveliness is only amplified by the fact that it never sticks around for long. So if you fail to take that time, you miss the show.
I discovered this particular patch the other morning at the edge of a nearby road. I was walking the dog, which meant my eyes were scanning downward to ensure she didn't eat something she shouldn't have. It's a Schnauzer thing. They hoover everything.
Something about this particular stretch made me pause over it, and you know the rest of the story.
Precisely what that "something" is I still can't quite figure out. I keep thinking I'm seeing it - a head, maybe? - but nothing's jumping out at me. Maybe you'll have better luck.
But even if we never get a definitive answer, I think it's more than enough to simply have our imaginations captured by something so elemental.

It's a very anxious fish who heard the words ".... and chips"
