There is here We are them “I” is not When is where Past is future Future is past We are water Up is down Uncurled is curled Tears are joy Hate is mindless Poem is reading Awake not dreaming See not knowing Pour was spill Clean was dirty Little is big Born was dead Left to right Wings are resting Desert was thirsty Jungle was noise War is sorrow Flowers are calling She is he Silence is golden Once is always Time is ticking
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.

Stay mindful, understanding, and caring!...
Now Tom, this certainly presses the mind to pause and reflect on the big picture of how opposites can attract and mirror one in the same. Sweet my friend. 😊🍹😘
Yes, Kym, and it does go deeper than that but too many people will not see it. But even with the historical Christ, it likely was the same thing, for he talked about how people see but do not perceive, and hear but do not understand. 😉
Poetry today – very nice Tom, plus that insect positioned just so on a plant that it blends in and we can count every single fuzzy hair on the leaf. Awesome!

this is a very insightful piece Tom
Perhaps, Michelle, perhaps. 😉
Yep, time is the needle that knits all into one, and, as we Poles say, “Czas leci.”
It may be that time only seems to fly. (And a butterfly on the wing is time flying.) 😉
Thought provoking
Thanks, Iswar. But it is also designed to encourage the mind to go beyond the noisy chatter of thought/thinking. 😉
LOVE this Tom – and that photo – oh!
Thank you, Sara. 😀 Haven’t done poetry for quite a while.

Oh my, Linda, if you are counting every single fuzzy hair on that leaf, i wish you luck! 😀
Fuzzy hair so long it almost needed a comb Tom!
😀
Time is ticking. I liked this!
Much appreciated, Marlene! 😉
Love the image and the philosophical poem.
Thanks much, Ken. That means a lot coming from you and your great blog work. 😀
