When making a pinwheel

you color and cut

choose and pick

pin it to a stick

and

blow hard and soft

thinking

you know the color of life

but colors change

and fade

pinwheels break

and

you are left

with only a stick

dreaming

of

when

there were many colors

and

all the pinwheels turned

The Tiny X

I’m but a small X in the Ozarks carrying my ancestors’ ways with me.  It worked for them and works for me. 

Mother Nature talks to me and I listen. She gifts me and I am thankful.  I try to give back.

If the world would do the same we could all live in paradise.
