"Have you ever noticed
a tree standing naked against the sky,
How beautiful it is?
All its branches are outlined, and in its nakedness
There is a poem, there is a song.
Every leaf is gone and it is waiting for the spring.
When the spring comes,
it again fills the tree with
The music of many leaves,
Which in due season fall and are blown away.
And this is the way of life."
~ Naked tree against the sky(Hubbard Lake)

Have a wonderful day, Joey, before I fall into a trance here :)
I have a special fascination for dead trees in the rain forest. They at times attract more birds than leafy trees!
Thanks a lot for dropping by in my blog and for your kind words.
Have a great day!
Brenda
very best regards,

Thanks Jodi ~ Perhaps because I was born in November, I've always been drawn to naked trees and the awesome autumn sky ... a most pensive time of year.
Hi Amy ... kindred souls perhaps? Trees and sky draw strong feelings, don't they?
Yes Rose, there is true beauty in a bare soul and, I agree, everything is part of a whole.
Welcome Gallicissa and thank you. You have a stunning blog and fine macro eye.
Thanks JGH ... I think we are on the same page here ;)
I feel the same, Brenda. The garden is a perfect spot for meditation.
Thank you, Katarina ~ there is great joy in autumn.
Thank you, Philip. I was inspired by these quotes also.
Wow, Anna, most interesting! You always present a unique comment! Thanks.
Thank you, Marnie. Growing up in strict Catholic schools, I had to learn how to become less structured (but a Jesuit university helped :)
