Will and Ed, Do you know the poetry about trees by Robert Frost?
Here's one of my favorites: "The way a crow Shook down on me The dust of snow >From a hemlock tree Has given my heart A change of mood And saved some part Of a day I had rued." When small things like this lift my heart on a bad day, I call it a "dust of snow" moment. Other of his great poems are: Birches; Tree at My Window; and Leaves Compared With Flowers They are deceptively simple. They really have tremendous depth. At least for me.
