Observation

Counting the rings in its life
The tree fell and splintered
Thick, bright – rain fulfilled
Thin, dark – sauna starlit eves
Cresting and decent…
The timber was strong
Self destruction for examination
No chance of re-righting
History exposed
Pitch in fervor
Fodder for the stream and nest
Old growth beginning anew
I'm an independent web developer and copywriter. When I'm not gazing into the seductive mistress of the internet, I'm helping to raise my two daughters (1 teen, 1 pre-teen) and hyperactive 5 year-old kung-fu master son. Blissfully and happily married to my wife, Kristen - as we try to survive the epic daily battles of suburban life in Maple Valley, WA.
