The zig-zag tree

The Lord is above all nations, and His glory above the heavens.

Psalm 113: 4
Progress is a zig-zag tree
A factory of leaves for the light
A heaven of blue holds it in view
And never leaves its sight.

A walkers delight.

I see that the path of progress has never taken a straight line, but has always been a zigzag course amid the conflicting forces of right and wrong, truth and error, justice and injustice, cruelty and mercy.

Kelly Miller (1863-1939 American mathematician , sociologist, essayist, newspaper columnist and author.)

Yesterday was a busy day of travel. Today is quiet and reflective with a chill wind. There is a little time for poetry and painting. Enjoy your time wherever you are.
