ONE RED LEAF - A PROFOUND THOUGHT FROM MASTER STEWEY ANGUS WILLOWSWAMP, HIS VERY DEEP LITTLE SELF

My mom can't come to the blog right now....she's on the back patio, gawping like a cod fish at something or other.  Moments ago, when I went outside for my morning constitutional and general inspection of each and every blade of grass, I heard the old lady bellowing.

"Stewey!", she hollered.  "Look at this bright yellow tree with one red leaf!"

It's not unusual for Mo-ther to holler about complete nonsense, but this time the portly old dear just might be on to something...


If you look closely, you might see a small black dot in the relative center of the picture above.  Let's see if I can get a little better view for you...


See it now?  One red leaf in the midst of all of that glorious yellow.  

I'm not normally one to wax poetic, but even I can see the significance of this lovely moment....perhaps we should all strive to be that one red leaf on the yellow tree of life.

(Oh, that was just ghastly.  I feel the need to retch delicately into my handkerchief now.)

Here's hoping that your weekend is filled with lovely moments.

With love from your pal, 
Stewey

    May God richly bless you both as you blessed us. You ARE the one red leaf in the tree to be appreciated for the gift that it is... a thing of beauty and joy forever. Thank you! :) Cathryn

    What a wonderful find! I moved from N.E. Ohio (lived there for 43 years) to Las Vegas about 7 months ago, and I think the one thing I've missed the most is seeing the changing of the leaves. Thanks for sharing your picture with us Stewey, and Mo-ther. :)

    Hit the wrong button again. I look forward to reading this blog and have been
    known to pick a year/month/day at random and read it. Just for the joy of reading. So

    Living in West Texas I love to see fall color in trees.
