Light Weaves Amidst the Green Leaves
Soft whispers dance where sunlight weaves,
Through tender folds of pretty leaves.
Newborn green on every tree,
A song of life and liberty.
Each leaf a promise, bright and true,
That spring has come — the world anew.

The theme for “Smile on Saturday” for the 25th of October is “bokeh in green”. One of the wonderful things about spring here is the sudden burst of fresh greenery on the trees, and a second thing is the wonderful light at this time of year. The two combined make for a perfect photo for the theme this week. This photograph is taken in my rear garden in the morning, and features leaves from one of my James Stirling Pittosporum trees which is interwoven with asparagus fern. Together with the spring sunlight they have created a wonderful world of bokeh in green. I hope you like my choice for this week's theme, and that it makes you smile!
The "James Stirling" is a cultivar of the Pittosporum tenuifolium tree, also known as a Kohuhu. It is a fast-growing, evergreen shrub or small tree that features silvery-green, wavy leaves on blackish-purple stems and is commonly used for hedging and screening.
