Trees are Earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.
These two young trees are just outside of our front door, and yet I have repeatedly failed to notice their beauty until today. I stepped out just before sundown to call Yael in for dinner (The tiny figure in the playground is her.) and there they were. Well, here they are. Have you any trees to share?Shutter Click & Chat 12/21 Sights of the season.
Recognizing that we aren't all gearing up for Christmas, I've left this one celebratory generic. Show me something wintry, Christmas-y, Hannukah-y, Solstice-y and more, just share a symbol of the season as you see fit.
Peace

I loved the quote by Tagore, very clever. Lovely trees, too. My trees, alas, are bare, they have shed their clothes until the spring.
Greetings from London.
Funny how sometimes we don't notice everyday beauty...
How nice to have the playground so close!
Goodmorning Mercado, it is nice to be loking at your blog, is call Peace....inteligense...Thank you for shering your thoghts with us!!!
Respect from NY....
love those maples...and u still have green grass and leaves. that makes me so jealous!
trees are some of my favorite people! Thanks for thinking of us non-Christians at this lovely time of year. As much as we enjoy the side -benefits of Christmas celebrations (wow! Look at those lights!) we do appreciate a nod of awareness....
such nice colors. and i enjoyed playing a quick game of "where's yael?"
Oddly, I thought the trees were bradford pears...
That's quite the front yard lady =). Makes me wanna have a picnic.
Thanks for posting this. It's lovely. It reminded me of a similar photo I took a few weeks ago. I'm working on a blog post about it now. It's funny the things we miss, that are right in front of our eyes. I believe we find them just at the moment we are supposed to... I also enjoyed the hunt for Yael! :)
I'm wondering about "Shutter Click and Chat." I'm sure you blogged about how it works somewhere, but I haven't the energy to search. Can you direct me to your original post about it... or tell a bit here (I'll check back)... or stop over at my blog and leave a comment (post title, "Watchful Treasure: Lone Autumn Tree Afar"). Thanks, and NO RUSH!!
Realized it makes more sense just to post the link for you to follow:
