Nature Study

NATURE STUDY (Etheree)

things
stipple
are diffused
pointillist view
the makings of things
reds    yellows   greens     and browns
in patch-dots of bright color
summer ends and autumn begins
a time which is both joyful and sad
death    but deep down    god’s promise of rebirth

Great expressive write that is both descriptive and faith based.Glad that I chose this one to read today..I enjoyed reading your comments on my work about the beans.They say that one can start with a small amount chew it well and drink water and train your body to accept the beans or gassie foods.Unless you have some enzyme missing that helps to digest these kinds of foods.Some people do..Maybe a little "Bean-0" would help.But if you can't tolerate them there is some much food to choose from..Sk

As to religious fanatics, everyone should be very afraid, anyone who thinks the only way to God is his/or her own way belittles the abilities of God. And shows his/her own prejudice. Light & Love Always

Very creative, Daver, seeing the colors of fall in pointillistic style like some of the great old painters. Excellent etheree, dear friend. Still having some health problems, but hanging in there and trying to resolve them. Just got home from a long fishing trip. Love you, Carolyn

Dave another gem with so much truth, when things change they come with sadness and joy, you've captured that, with the promise of God as a surety, love Wilma
