my FAVORITE place to be…
walking in the Woods
with my Friends, the Trees
Oak and Pine, Sourwood and Dogwood
Maple and Poplar
Beech and Willow
they don’t judge, they’re always waiting for my embrace, my love, my witness to their majesty or simple presence
I AM the GRATEFUL one
there is only presence, soft or strong wind, they still stand
giving oxygen to all around us
PLEASE, I beg you, don’t bring them down
Love ’em Up! Just like children. Love ’em Up!
~ A. Adams, Grateful Tree lover

Catsura Tree – smells like Cotton Candy!

Autumn Maples with dancing sunlight

Golden Birch shimmering in the setting sunlight

An Invitation to sit, meditate, breathe and give thanks for the lushness of the forest among the pines!
