“Trees are poems that the earth writes upon the sky.”
― Kahlil Gebran
This was a beautiful poem indeed. Though my shot didn’t capture the vibrancy of the scene completely, I would like to share this picture. The gorgeous green canopy waving with the tunes of the breeze was a spectacular view. The blue sky and sea created a gorgeous backdrop.
my path ahead is filled with lifeless trees staring into oblivion.
i move forward not knowing where i end up eventually. the skeletons of the trees — are they guiding me somewhere? or steering me to something dreadful? do they represent the nightmares i try to run away from or the spring of hope that could appear in the distant future?
my journey continues, despite the eluding answers
for now, i will find contentment in pursuing this journey that leads to nowhere.
Joining Parul’s #ThursdayTreeLove with this tree shot from Salt Lake River in Mesa, Arizona. We hiked this area in the last weekend of February –and it was a wonderful experience. Some trees resembled the ghostsof their past. What stories are they hiding? I wonder. The above verses are a figment of my imagination. I hope you enjoy this read.
canopies of leaves reaching out to share a touch, maybe, share a story, filtering light through, offering shade, ushering life
As much as this picture jolted me to jot down a couple of verses, my lines couldn’t do justice to the picturesque view that sprinkled a sense of serenity in me. This park we visited last month was such a treat for the soul.
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.”

on a long winding road I saw trees embroidered with multicolor leaves atop the mountain they looked like little bushes casually thrown all over each different view as brilliant as the next
every autumn leaf leaves behind a tale that began on a spring morning, every spring bloom graces the garden aware of the impending fall in autumn. at the end of the dusk, there awaits a beautiful dawn. Another year is on our doorstep, 365 days it will roll out, before fading into the background.
You being here had been always my pleasure from once upon a time when you first arrived to now, when your presence overpower the world I relish your presence all I ask is to be kind and compassionate to us, the other life forms, who can’t communicate through words. Enjoy my shade, adore those butterflies befriending the new blossoms leave behind a trace of yours without disturbing the laws of the universe, could you, human?
Here on the balcony A smile shines on my face Spotting that twinkling star,
A tiny star Residing light years away Erases my worries with its flicker Without worrying about its purpose! Another lesson taught by the Universe On a serene night.
