My Thoughts On Peace on Earth

I walk my dogs on a friend’s farm. There are a few homes there and one neighbor has a Christmas tree in the middle of a pond they borders their back yard and a pasture. As I walked back to my car, as dusk was falling, I could see its lovely presence and reflection through the trees. For some reason it defined Christmas for me this year. The lonely but beautiful starkness of this time we now live. I stopped to capture it and felt an eerie sadness, like a grief of endings.
