Transition ~

 "It gives one a sudden start in 

going down a barren, stony street,

to see upon a narrow strip of grass,

just within the iron fence, the radiant dandelion,

shining in the grass, like a spark dropped from the sun."

Henry Ward Beecher

The grass withers

the flower fades

but the word of our 

 God lives forever.

Isaiah 40:8
