Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings Psalm 17:8 NIV The Fall Blow leaves, just a few, to feed my eye. One clings to its branch - “Hang on, Baby…” or “Let go…” Another clings to a web, evanescent. One more procures a landing on my windshield, “I spy…” Mysteriously the fall stops there, as if I am in its eye - I am the apple. 11/2/2022

More so I (we) am the apple of God’s eye and he delights me with precious moments. He makes me ponder what’s happening around me. Thanks, Victor.
