Today and Tomorrow

(Click on highlighted text for photographs.)

The woodpile is smaller than yesterday
and today is colder.

Even so, the fire burns
and the house is warm;

I do not hope.
Hope is for the unbelieving.

I know death is a hoax:
When does the universe take
without giving back?

    Hi Dave. I clicked the link from your TCP post. The photos are perfectly suited to the text here! I understand the shrinking woodpile - I have one myself. And also a body that seems to lose energy every year, no matter how much fuel I feed it.

    Great blog! I'll have a further look around now that I'm here.

    Thanks Brenda. Glad you came. I thought they worked well too.

    Life is full of little things that make sense.
