the wind tugs the leaves
off the aspen trees, many
before they’re golden—
children, I say, I love you,
and kiss their green ears
their green heads as I send
them to school,
tell them to go
do beautiful things

green ears – so young, green heads – so tender Thank you for giving me the words I can share when asked the question, so what can we do???? —Go do beautiful things!
Brian Andreas offers in his “Story People” – “There is nothing I can say that will bring them back, all their bright futures spread before us. But I will stnd here all the same with you, my heart broken open with yours and remember what we have lost.”
With a saddened heart, and a deep bow,
Love and Namaste
Augusta
That is a beautiful quote from Brian …
Thank you, Augusta, for the beautiful work you do in the world,
Rosemerry
