Each turn,
One hour
Glass upturned,
Starts again.
Each turn
One year
Tree upturned,
It dies.
Magpie Tales goes GREEN!

ReplyDeleteWow, Stafford. This really speaks to me.
ReplyDeleteI too worry about our little island in the Milky Way!
Think of the horror if the hourglass was calibrated for thirty minute intervals ....
ReplyDelete*** absolute destruction of our Green Earth.
I could weep at the thought .......
(are the hourglass and calibrate mutually exclusive?)
REALLY? This is remarkable. Great write. Love and Light, Sender
ReplyDeleteI like what you did in so few words, and nice pic of rings....Thanks
ReplyDeleteI love how you put something so important in just a few words. Go green and grow trees
ReplyDeleteA powerful mag and more importantly reminder of neccessary actions we all need to do to save our mother earth...
ReplyDeleteGo green !!
Minimum words, maximum message...
ReplyDeleteWe'd all look better in green.
ReplyDeleteThis would make a terrific poster. Wisdom and brevity. So simple and direct, thank you.

Dear Stafford: Hope nobody ever upturns me upside down. It is amazing how we can make time and the growth circles on tree stumps shows us how to mark time. As if I really need to do that! Now to find a way to go backwards or turn over time somehow!
ReplyDeleteLove this one!!
ReplyDeleteah!one is glass and one is wood.....I have heard that there are a lot of people killing time too...bkm
ReplyDeleteTis ** THE MASTER ** at his ** MASTERFUL BEST **
ReplyDeleteGo Greenie. Go Greenie.
ReplyDeleteTurn back time - plant a tree!
Boohoo! I'm with Selma, plant a tree (though that could be difficult on a boat - heehee).
