Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky, we fell them down and turn them into paper, that we may record our emptiness.

Grape vines cut from oaks. The vines grow upward draging the trees to the ground. To free the trees, we cut them at the ground, coming back after they've died to pull them down.
Paeonia Suffruticosa

Today I visited Brooklyn Botanic Gardens in NYC, saw the tree peonies (many species) there. Can't pass on this, for my NAME'S sake!
Boy! Do they smell pretty!!

Caddo Lake is a magical place. I return with something different every time I go.
Alyce Bender and I had another excellent workshop and we're already filling next year's event. Contact either me or Bender if you'd like to be included next season.
This tree has been photographed thousands of times, so it's difficult to get a fresh perspective on it, but thought I'd throw in my two cents.
Portland Japanese Garden, Portland, OR
Memory tree stands at the exit of extinct extension.
The ocean takes a drop from here.
Steeply, to a depth of Hundreds of Meters.
The tree stands, awkwardly, marking this transition point.
The tree marks the limit, this island can be extended (grown) with reclamation.
The outer edge of reef.
The lagoon, (earlier this used to be!) together with reef, provides safety, and protects the island from many external forces.
When people intervene with nature, things start to go wrong.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When people started migrating, en-mass, into this island, many things started to happen. Some wrong. Some very, very wrong.
Overcrowding and congestion led to many environmentally and socially unfriendly activities.
Houses spurted quickly, on beaches. Lagoons became the next beach.
Houses spurted quickly, on beaches. Lagoons became the next beach.
Houses. More houses...
Until finally the protective lagoon gave up.
Houses filled up every imaginable inch and space.

Vulnerable.
One fine morning, in 1987?, A storm of tidal waves rammed the coastal areas and flooded the Capital island.
It caused massive losses to land and property, opening wide concerns of the environmental sustainability of the island.
The stupid actions of people cannot be reversed.
The island cannot go back to its former glory days.
A huge publicity campaign followed.
The disturbing pictures of this beautiful tropical paradise island faced with immediate extinction brought in sympathies from all over.
Hence, this 'temporary' 180 Million Dollar solution.
A kind donation by the Japanese.
The seawall around the Capital.
(Story coming.)

Early June and a 2nd Week long trip to RSPB Bempton in East Yorkshire.
Day 1. The first day.
Another Tree Sparrow high up on a twig/plant stem.
Smaller than a House Sparrow and more active, with its tail often cocked. It has a chestnut brown head and nape (rather than grey) and white cheeks and collar with a contrasting black cheek spot.
The UK Tree Sparrow population has suffered a severe decline, estimated at 93 per cent between 1970 and 2008.
Spring trees against an abandoned concrete container show rubbings on the wall from many windy days. Amazing how much wear a tree branch can cause on a hard surface if just given the time.
Close to Sossusvlei in the Namib-Naukluft National Park in Namibia, Deadvlei is a clay pan characterized by dark, dead camel thorn trees.

This is one of my favorite fallen trees in Asylum Lake Preserve. Is it wrong to play favorites with fallen trees?
