We try and grow so tall in the world that surrounds us.
We look so glorious, so strong, so resilient in our habitat
While retaining our beauty, integrity, and fragility.
And we look so perfect, despite our imperfection.
But there are things larger than us;
Things that are beyond our haphazard comprehension and conception.
Beyond our trivial and minuscule dilemmas.
We don't deserve to be surrounded by such wondrously grandiose grandeur.
But this is the world we live in, and we must cherish every nanometer of it.
Who wants to live in a palace of gold that is tarnished?
We look so glorious, so strong, so resilient in our habitat
While retaining our beauty, integrity, and fragility.
And we look so perfect, despite our imperfection.
But there are things larger than us;
Things that are beyond our haphazard comprehension and conception.
Beyond our trivial and minuscule dilemmas.
We don't deserve to be surrounded by such wondrously grandiose grandeur.
But this is the world we live in, and we must cherish every nanometer of it.
Who wants to live in a palace of gold that is tarnished?

Amazing photograph and poetic words, indeed. A guy named George Eliot said something that echos in your pictures: "Therefore, let us always have men...who see beauty in the commonplace things, and delight in showing how kindly the light of heaven falls on them."
Keep on takin' your amazing photos and writing your amazing poetry!
