"Sunrise (Summer - SPA Guest Host)" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week I have the honor of guest hosting Sunday Postcard Art, and I chose the challenge theme "Summer."


When I made this art piece months ago, I didn't realize it would reflect how hot the Summer would be where I live in the northeast US. We will be having our third or fourth Heat Advisor this coming Tuesday and Wednesday, when the Heat Index will be 100 F to 105 F (37.7 C to 40.5 C).

If I had only one wish for my country (and perhaps the world), it would be that people could see "the man behind the curtain" who foments Divide and Conquer. But the scales have tipped too far.

If I had only one wish for a loved one, I already used it, and it wasn't granted.

If I had only one wish for myself, I already used it, and it wasn't granted.

Because Nature is neither Good nor Evil. Nature is merely reproduction and survival of the fittest. (July 2016)

If the world should stop revolving
Spinning slowly down to die
Then one by one the stars would all go out
