Only God can make a TREE – #TreeSquare

Myrna Migala

#treesquare challenge is still running till the end of the month. I remembered this photo I took and enhanced a few years back, thought I would share it here on my blog.

But First!

Joyce Kilmer’s poem “Only God can make a tree.”

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;

A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

If anyone seeing this ever is in Spokane, please don’t miss a trip to visit Mount St. Michael, a historic and beautiful treat for all. 

For a hundred years, Mount St. Michael has stood on a bluff overlooking the city. One day while walking around the park-like area, I noticed this ancient tree that seemed to be showing off a graceful twist. I could not help but capture its image forever with my camera; with the help of my photo editor, I added a bit of glamour with color and a graceful dancer to couple with the oversized tree growing there. 

Even the trees in the background seem to be dancing!

Is Independence Day Over? — NEVER!

Thinking deeply of our FREEDOM … AND … The word Liberty A synonym for the word FREEDOM.

From Brainy Quotes I found — President George Washington said this about Liberty.

“Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth.”

The image of the tree below is picture-perfect for the above quote.

Call me Liberty — No stopping me!

However, this another quote of George Washington should be a warning!


“If the freedom of speech is taken away, then dumb and silent we may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.”

Because it’s time for a change;
Not an end! Instead
Time for skeleton leaves fun!
Now fun begins time is now.

OBSERVATION 

DancewithMe

 

One day while enjoying a stroll
Pondering things within my soul
I came across this twisted tree
Interesting it was to see —
Created by nature, I thought!
My camera, the one I brought
Captured this dance music and all!
Although the tree was rather tall
A tiny dancer soon appeared —
My snatched image, my souvenir.
All happened while taking a stroll!

My post was inspired
