Spring Petals on a Pond

Beauty and relief in the reclaimed stillness after violent destruction. 
 
We move onward. 
 
Spring flirts with life and death, in a non-linear growth pattern. 
 
There is always hope. 
 
This memory traces back to an experience at the Moon Viewing Garden, in the San Francisco Botanical Garden. Surrounded with serene natural beauty, these petals and the reflection from trees above filled her heart with reverence for the certainty of uncertainty within a season.
