Leaves of Perception Artwork by Pamela Storch explores the relationship between perception and awakening. Each leaf, bathed in light, becomes a teacher — a symbol of awareness, growth, and subtle transformation. The photograph invites reflection on how we see the world, and how perception shapes our reality. Through her art, Pamela captures nature’s silent messages in moments of exquisite clarity and depth.

Leaves of Perception 

Black and white amaze within, 
The fractal landscape near, 
Awaiting understanding still, 
The goblin to appear, 

Yet monster can the shadow be, 
It knocks and calls the day, 
The trauma underneath the stone, 
That will not go away, 

It rocks and knocks and screams within, 
Awaiting on it's knees, 
For someone real to see it's pain, 
And end it's cruel decrees, 

For all the shadow wants is love, 
It lost itself at night, 
And when it finds it's truest self, 
The whole world turns to light.
