TO AND IN THE NATURE OF AWARENESS GRACE A fall morning drive presents an interesting ride. Looking out into he roadside forest palisade, Eyes fall upon two age-old stoic trees still clothed In their branches’ waving illuminating green leaves:- Like an un-blindfolded statues of liberty, they defiantly stand; As if easel-like saying, “...a fall comes, but weilded, we will not.” Struct by this beautiful defiant—first sight—palisade canvassing, It’s then noticed that in between these two trees, there stood A thin, naked—seemingly non-barked—skinny branched tree. Her weakly appearance was if the wind should blow, poor she And her branches would eventually become little fire-bit-chips; Yet, just as defiantly, there she and her bowing branches stood.

No matter what may be the oppressive times we must bear, Hope is the cross of crucifixion and the resurrection thereof; Like challenged trees, we must likewise stand perpendicular In undying hope and hope, when challenged by life’s nature:- With this allegorical canvassing of nature’s divine wisdom and guidance, I continue on my drive to my precious labor of love—teaching the children. Beseeching, I ask God for traveling graces that I may arrive safe and sound; Free from harm, free from causing harm, and freely preventing any harm.
