new growth

we’ve been waiting all winter for our chance to grow some delicate new creative shoots. if only we could simply wait for the month of may, and let the process happen biologically like these balsam tips. instead we have to wait for july, and engineer the process manually, after economics, and education, and personal finance, and athletics, and technology have all been taken into account. sure it would be boring most days to be a balsam tree. but i can envy it that thoughtless and beautiful lime green growth, can’t i?

    Thank you, every day I receive your Picture by RSS and it’s like a haiku (japanese poem) simple and so beautiful. Just need taking time to see the tiny things around us and it makes your day so wonderful. Thank you
