A SKYWATCH POST

skywatchlogo Beautiful skies from all around the world.

He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
Author:
Bible
Source: Matthew (ch. XVI, v. 2-3)

“THE SKY IS LOW,THE CLOUDS ARE MEAN” EMILY DICKINSON

“The sky is low, the clouds are mean,
A travelling flake of snow
Across a barn or through a rut
Debates if it will go.
A narrow wind complains all day
How some one treated him;
Nature, like us, is sometimes caught
Without her diadem.”

From the internet says “Author Unknown.” I received in an Email from J.R.  (Thanks J.R.)

When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one.  It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound will still be there.  A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.

Please forgive
me if I have ever left a ' hole ' in your fence. Joe Todd

The photo of the Oak Tree was taken at Chestnut Ridge Metro Park. Then I used a free program “FotoSketcher” to get the effects in the second picture.

joetodd2021  I will leave you with this thought, “A White Pickett Fence has no nails or nail holes.” Maybe something to strive for?
