Here are very many nevers
each inexorably not together
There are ever few always
flying higher than the tall trees
?Why are there so many (shall be)s
striving for littlesome (maybe)s
?Why can’t feathers ask us why
when does wishing stop to try
?When did slow turn to fast
where did time change at last
In the deep of round no wonder
lightning cracks and speaks as thunder
As the toadstools dance and bloom
eons pass across your room
Zygotes form when gametes curve
wise blossoms flower beyond preserve

My Blog primarily consists of close-up nature photos (that I've taken locally) combined with original holistic-truth oriented prose and/or poetry involving mindfulness/awareness. I love nature and I love understanding the whole (not merely the parts and the details). I'm a retired teacher of the multiply handicapped.
I have a number of interesting hobbies, such as fossil collecting, sport-kite flying, 3D and 2D close-up photography, holography, and pets. Most of all, I am into holistic self-awareness, spontaneous insight, unconventional observation/direct perception, mindfulness, meditation, world peace, non-fragmentation, population control, vegetarianism, and green energy.
