so i cleared the noise that was my mind
and silenced the mess that time created
watched gratitude thank sorrow
and reflection puzzle the mirror that made it
-dont ask me what it means, i humour myself! wahahaha.

the water feature is still going, and i have to remind myself to savour the sound. Apparently climate change is persistent about not letting us take water for granted. and i just watched it. watched and listened. ohh, and theres the green that makes up our mini forest. that colour is amazing. if i told you the colour was fighting, would you believe me? its not dark and not light, it was dark and lush and luring, and now its fighting to appear like nothing's changed...not the heat, not the lack of water. its fighting to stay on the fern, on the leaves and the stems their tiring lives. a tint of yellow is starting to sneak aboard one of the leaves.

i love...the fight,
i love the commitment not to go down without a fight
i love the knowledge i need never go down
and i love the struggle and victory that is life...

i know dad is doing all in his power to save our water feature and the plants, and i have an incling that the green of the leaves will weaken towards a sickly yellow, but they wont die. dad wont let them. and neither will i. and after the tribulation that is this drought, they will be restored, and the joy that they bring at the sight of them will remind us of the very same battle in which we were the victors.

smile!
