Somewhere A symphony plays The strings of my heart Harmonizing Nature Music to my eyes — at the corner of harmony and melody
Decidedly a tree, from the spring of life, long ago and far away, it seems. How far we have come in such a short time, blossoming into the peak of the season, in the blink of an eye... or perhaps three.
Today is #TreeTuesday initiated by @Old-Guy-Photos. Let's put up some trees today! If you haven't guessed it by now, this tree is one of my favorites. I walk right by him whenever I go out for a run or walk. No matter which way I go, it always comes back to him.

I probably have a least a hundred pictures of this tree, in various states of dress and well, undress. He was nekkid, three months ago. Perhaps you don't recognize him with his leaves on? Times flies. Catch it if you can.
I didn't want to shock anyone, but, I wanted to alert the media and let it get proper attention...Christmas in July is usually recognized as July 12!
It's five o'clock somewhere
To this day The vision in my thoughts Gives me reason to pause Whispering your name Aloud
Double my pleasure when the twins are in my path. Who can resist the beauty times two? It is like making a new friend, releasing the normal boundaries.
We interrupt this #TreeTuesday for a moment or three...A flower. There must always be a flower. This flower is dedicated to #TuesdayOrange #ColorChallenge by @Kalemandra, who colors my world, every single day.
Let the sun shine in on your life So the joy may touch your soul
Copious shades of beauty saturate my soul, my soul, watching as my day disappears into the glorious night revolving in the sky as it sings.
Night, a more perfect day, A day of shadows luminous, Water and sky at one, at one with us; As if the very peace of night, The older peace than heaven or light, Came down into the day.
Arthur Symons

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
they set my aunts house on fire i cried the way women on tv do folding at the middle like a five pound note. i called the boy who use to love me tried to ‘okay’ my voice i said hello he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
i’ve been praying, and these are what my prayers look like; dear god i come from two countries one is thirsty the other is on fire both need water.
later that night i held an atlas in my lap ran my fingers across the whole world and whispered, "where does it hurt?" it answered,
"everywhere" "everywhere" "everywhere"
