Alone


Solitary (Click picture for larger view) Posted by Picasa
"Life is a frail moth flying
Caught in the web of the years that pass."
~ Sara Teasdale
This solitary moth flew under the bird netting to sample the nectar of the ripening blueberries. Now it clings to the netting unable to find its way clear; hindered by the relentless urge to fly towards the blazing sun. How we are like this moth at times; caught in a net of our own making, frantically trying to reach the sun and oblivious to opportunities for escape that are so close at hand.
