Temporary Turtle


Turtles have appeared in the pond. They rest on a Tree that fell into the water several years ago. They line up like a train, basking in whatever Sun makes it through the clouds of early Spring. Eventually, the Turtles move on to larger bodies of water as the heat of Summer dries up the Water in the pond. Anticipating this, gets me thinking about impermanence. The Turtles will not stay all Summer. We can see them now, but perhaps tomorrow they will be gone. Today, I will be paying attention to what is in my life today, in appreciation of an unknowable tomorrow.
