Things of the Ground

The ground is the ground is the ground so right

Our footsteps tread its sturdy might

Trees, flowers, grain.......they form must take

As seeds their destiny do make

The little ground collage scene in the above photo jumped to my attention the other day. It was amazing how many colors were hugging this exposed tree root within the differing textures of the grass, moss, lichen, old pine needles, tree bark, dried leaves, and tiny sticks.

Then unfortunately, from that tiny spot of gaily decorated ground, we look yonder below and see the huge contrasting messy mud patch out in the field. Its still going to be awhile before any tractors dare drive in there.

Have a colorful Saturday!!
