I just caught a glimpse of one of God’s paintbrushes
on the swirls of falling snow.
The infinite complexity of swirls upon sworls upon whorls
of the wind is masked by larger swirls
that make it appear the wind blows
in a line of continually changing direction.
But if one rides with the wind and watches it blow,
it becomes an infinitely deep set of fractals,
ranging from the largest sworls,
hundreds to thousands of kilometers across
to the smallest of millimeters or less
and every scale in between,
Wind paints a mosaic of incredible geometry
best described by the Mandelbrot set,
rather than differentials equation
of fluid dynamics.
How may I insert the fractal iterative equations
into the differential equations to capture
the beauty, simplicity and complexity
of patterns of the wind?
