The jewel at the center

Every time I drive past these two trees,

 I am fascinated, 

Intrigued by the shapes they carve 

Into the sky above them, 

So finally, on a foggy day, 

I looked forward to seeing those shapes 

 In relief against the gray surround 

And kept my camera poised 

But by the time I reached them 

The fog had lifted, though not completely. 

I stopped anyway, and framed the shot, 

And hit the big white button on my phone, 

Only later to discover 

 The charming detail at their base: The red shed, 

 And the white diamonds in its door 

Like tiny gems at the heart of the image. 

Pay attention! Listen to what calls you, 

And make time to discover or uncover 

The jewels that await you 

At the core; at the nucleus of being.
