A Benign Bear

Because I walk the same route day after day I notice change-- a new mushroom, polypores clinging to tree trunks, flowering weeds, tramped down areas, turtles emigrating to the pond.

The time of day, the slant of the sun, and the shadows alter what I observe.

Today I spotted a bear. Not a soft cuddly bear. Not a bear with one paw in a honey pot.

I walked up an incline to take a closer look at a four foot high wood carved bear.An anonymous artist added a bit of whimsy to a rather ordinary slope.

Surprises-- life's full of them.
