Castles in motion

Synthetic husk on cobble

Yet behold the leaf


The author's comments:

Here this exercise in brevity, inspired by my enjoyment of neighborhood walks in my prior living location of Denver, Colorado. On such walks I was very content with even the dreary of the natural realm, despite and especially in light of the prolific house construction and the occasional pollution. Similar situations also occasionally arise here in Boulder, in which I am presently situated, but I more so rely on memories of that time.

For in the deplorable oft is the most admirable.
