SATURDAY SERENITY 9-12-2015

I love trees......

of all kinds.............

they are so strong...................

and yet....................so very graceful in their own way................

Rest is not idleness,

and to lie sometimes on the grass

under the trees on a summer’s day, 

listening to the murmur of water, 

or watching the clouds float across the blue sky, 

is by no means waste of time.

 ~John Lubbock, “Recreation,” The Use of Life, 1894

I always feel serene when I am around trees. Do you?
