The Embroidered Talisay* Leaf

                The Embroidered Talisay* Leaf

 Dr Abe V Rotor


Neither at sunrise nor sunset, 
fresh in spring nor in autumn dry;
ephemeral is beauty to behold,
'til a breeze comes passing by.


"God pours life into death and death into life without a drop being spilled." ~Author unknown

"To think of death, to hold ideas or views or beliefs about it, is simply to hold views, ideas, or beliefs about life. The first great idea, perhaps, that we want to hold deeply is that death is not the end of life but simply an event in life." 
- Lilian Whiting, The World Beautiful

  
Hardly a duplicate of the other - dimensional illusion of life.

 
Tattered Christmas Tree in autumn, 
deciduous to the Season's call;
Nature is reborn, the world rejoices, 
creatures all, big and small.

                          *Terminalia catappa, also known as Country Almond, a large 
                            tropical tree in the leadwood tree family, Combretaceae,
