fresh white blossoms
& weathered hues of decay:
both old & young (like me.)

“Trees” by Joyce Kilmer [w/ Audio]
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose busom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

in tall grass & sedges,
but bees still find them.

Growing in Stone [Haiku]
from old stone ruins
grow hardy weeds, raising
flowery heads skyward.
