The Most Beautiful Tree
I know there are thousands and thousands of beautiful trees full of fall colors, but I love my very own New York Kentucky Coffee Tree. If you don't yet have a tree of your own, you can share this one with me. Beautiful New York Kentucy Coffee Tree
Weeping Willow Song
If I were a leaf on a willow tree I’d grow long, I’d grow thin, I’d grow straight. Pliant and toothed and veined, I’d be With a bend and a brush and sshhhhoowishee sshhhoowee What a beautiful song I’d create. When it rained I’d lead those droplets down Along my center vein, I might let a drop hang on my tip for awhile While we’d conjure a simple refrain: Shhhhoowishha, shhhhoowisshha, shhhhooweee. I would drape and sway with my leaf-mates and limbs In a waterfall weeping with fractals and spray. While the raindrops pitter and daylight dims, We’ll settle and nestle and quietly say Sshhhooeeswish, shhhooeehush, shooeeay. Harlem Meer North, October
(Chrysanthemum x Chrysanthemum)3
Chrysanthemum(chrysanthemum(chrysanthemum(chrysanthemum x chrysanthemum)))... Where did these chrysanthemums come from? There was nothing but a few green sprigs just awhile ago, and now this? It is completely impossible! Nothing has been added but a little time and sunlight (plus, I guess, some rain). Conservancy Garden, October 2010
Young Girl Holds Plate Full of Sparrows
This wet and fizzy picture was taken by a very brave yet reality-challenged photographer, who did not fail to click the shutter, even while falling into the lily pond. Severely submerged, she still managed to retrieve the memory card from her soaked and dripping camera. The sparrows remained calm. Fortunately, several passersby were available to pull her out. We are hoping for a total recovery of camera, photographer, waterproof backpack and self-confidence. The Secret Garden, October 2010
