cool morning
mist rising, mountain's breath
A hint of sun
a promise of warm embrace
after a cold winter
hints of snow still linger in the shade.
a loon calls out from the lake below
Spring has arrived
and with it promise of new life
New faces and old
greeted with equal joy.
Dreams that seemed so far away
now bring renewed hope.
Trees that seemed mere skeletons yesterday
radiate their green brilliance. Collecting energy
for life.
How many are aware of these things? How many care?
Will we every wake up? Or are we simply so vested into this consumption system that we can't see the entropy?
The problems are real, and larger than any one person. But each action helps. Plant a tree, get involved in peace and social justice, farm/garden sustainably. Buy local. Build community. For if we all work together we can effect real change. "It's those who show up who write the future."
Nice!
