Orange against Gray, September

So September is the season of the lush orange flowers. Remember this, you Watcher of Seasons. The African Tulip tree, the Rudrapalaash. Tall tree with thick foliage, burning orange at the ends. Seen against dark cloudy skies. Orange against Gray. And oh, the same contrast on the road too, when you finally remember to look down. And oh, all this for free.

If something matters only to you, it still matters. So what if you are a one-person world, swirling around a sun only you can see. There were sun-less times too.

Every little thing, marked, measured, treasured, and rescued from the Darkness, that is probably right at the door, waiting, biding its hour.

While there is still time, note the Orange against the Gray. Sear it into your soul. Show it in your smile.
