It is 7 in the morning I am watching from my Bedroom window Mist everywhere I see three trees lined up by the side of my front yard One very tall green tree I think more than 20 feet the other green tree not so tall the center one lost most of the leaves just a skeleton like an old member of the house In the center is Solo tree with bright yellow leaves some orange too standing with great confidence with strong roots it's branches and leaves spreading and covering nearly the whole of the front yard area This solo tree looks to me a highly educated member of my front yard family a very cultured  and stylish  well composed who is living an artistic and polished life style It's body is very strong but slender I think he is strongly following the Diet plan and goes to Gym to build muscles and to keep body in shape Anyhow I am very much impressed and try to behave myself  while passing by this tree who doesn't c...

Through the Woods

It was night time I was going with my son to pick my grandson from Hockey game it was cloudy so was pitch black We were passing through the street lined both sides with trees it was a two track highway so trees looked like not so far away I opened my window to smell and to breathe in real fresh air I was lucky I smelled a very strong odor sure skunk must be around somewhere here It gave me very different feeling feeling of passing through the Real Woods trees were very quiet may be already asleep Stillness all around so calm so peaceful wind also moving with caution making sure not to stir and  disturb the serene atmosphere  We see different shades of Nature  this is a Solemn one not the Joyous mood of the Morning God is Gracious to provide us a variety of taste and flavor and also vibrant scenic views to behold and enjoy and be Thankful
