Amber glows of a sunset
The distinct smell of cedar trees
Autumn leaves drifting as they dance with the wind
Ember in a firepit that mesmerizes the soul
Realization that frost isn’t rain or snow or dew
Sunlit gleams upon the water of the seas
Fog which looms over its temporary domain
And a nebula doing the same to space in a night sky
The mist from a welcome ocean breeze
The miracle of an oasis in the sands of the desert
The pulse of life newly formed
Sharp edges designed as quartz
How ripples and tides can be a warning
The lessons found in an umbra
Is a reminder to be sage and look for something bigger
The vivid images from memories we hold dear
And the short wisp of time we are on earth...
