“A Fleeting Thought”
This project was inspired by the events of Spring 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic was (is) undoubtedly at top-of-mind for everyone living through it. One of the things that I miss the most is being able to escape my home and surround myself with nature. This narrative series is my attempt to depict that desire, only it’s told from the perspective of my brother who doesn’t hold the same appreciation for nature.
What a strange feeling…
Swaying with the reeds was never his style
Nor was tracing the highways on the leaves
He never noticed the trees gossiping to each other
Or how tall they stood.
But today he couldn’t help but wish
That he could receive a ration to enjoy
