Description
Ode To My Tree, dancing in the wind,..photography by VIVA Anderson, is my celebration of this, "my" tree!! She guards the garden, she sprinkles sunlight into my room, she houses myriad birds , who all sing to me and each other, and, she stands so tall, so gracefully, with
her delicate leaves, branches, dancing in the wind. "There is nothing like a tree..."
Thank you, Terrance,:)) :: "TdpArts Gallery Terrance DePietro :::'...she stands so tall, so gracefully, with her delicate leaves, branches, dancing in the wind....' Those images you paint VIVA!.................Ah!!!! The Feminine Principle lives!!!!"""
Trees
BY JOYCE KILMER
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 bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
"Trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky."
- Kahlil Gibran
