The Forest


Emptiness is devoid of quality---never quantity.
We often dismiss the distinctive details in the fabric of life clothed around us.
Even the hollow forest captures the beauty in the changes life brings.
The high density of the trees are seemingly desolate and devastated... because we focus on its withering autumn leaves as the wicked winter-wind woos in,
whilst denying the beautiful shadows of the trees perching on crystal icy grounds.
How then can we appreciate a blossoming branch as it lures us in from a budding seed in spring?
And feel the joy of a bright sun as it ushers in on its gleeful green-land in the summer.
The beautiful Maya Angelou once penned... "We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty."
