Consider ... The Leaves


There are times when it is all simply too overwhelming... and in those moments, I relish the intricate simplicity and marvelously faithful functioning of... The Leaves!

I am repeatedly drawn to simplicity because it is there I can catch my breath, appreciate the moment and become fully aware of the poetry in life. I don't know why, I've always had this "thing" for leaves and rocks...I never tire of their significance...nature's sweet gifts...just love 'em!

happy day ~

When all else has passed away, there remains the simple beauty of Thee ... Me ... the rocks ... and the tree.

I love you, Joni.

I love the stark beauty of dead trees. Even in death, they portray majesty.

Have a simply lovely weekend, John-Michael.

Hi There, My Dear Friends. I am In Peculiar (YES! That is the real name of the community), Missouri for my niece's wedding. So my responses will be out of the usual rhythm. I just gained access to a computer. So, I will be responding in the morning.(It is after 11PM now and I am "hitting the hay, the rack, the sack ... going to bed! [smile] Lovin' You All ...

I do love You, my Dear!

To choose to see the Beauty in all that is ... such a Gift, Dear NiteByrd. And I am blessed to have You choose to share it with me. Thank You.

Loving You ...
