Signs of These Times

10 April 2025 – Signs take many forms.

There are nature’s signs, for example, created by nature and marking nature’s own events…

and then there are human signs, created by humans in response to human-generated events.

This spring, they are plentiful.

We see them tucked among the café stir-sticks…

blazoned across store-front windows…

and even…

unexpectedly & heart-warmingly…

taped to a utility pole.

    These gestures are shared to all who pass by. Very worthy thing to do in these troubled times.
