Love spoke things into existence
It created with Its words
woven the masses and forms that surround us -
so strategically placed -
yet seem so effortlessly set
The changing of the seasons is at hand
and the signs are in the leaves as they gently turn from their green
to yellow
to orange
to red
to brown
and drop to the ground
abandoning the tree they were attached to their whole life
they wither and crumble and disintegrate
and blow tumultuously with the wind
until they are no more.
The tree cries out for spring again
and newly formed buds perpetuate it's virgin branches
birthed from the life of a tree planted years ago.
Seasons change
The tree is wise in understanding that spring will not last
the fall will come again
and even colder, winter
and it feels the change long before it shows its colors.
Yet it always looks forward to spring.

An Artist
An artist is rarely logical. They usually feel before they respond. All thoughts are processed introspectively and can be changeable like the brush stroke of a new color on a canvas. They often hold onto items sentimentally and often mismatch. Not because they do not want to match – but because their passions are diverse and they can see the connections no one else can. Are they spacey? Do they not pay attention? Perhaps it is just the opposite. They pay too much attention and do not know what to do with all of the information that has arrived.
