I go among trees and sit still. All my stirring becomes quiet around me like circles on water. My tasks lie in their places where I left them, asleep like cattle… - from I Go Among Trees by Wendell Berry #BlueSkyArtShow #big #ColorADay #GreenSat #forest #scape

Looking up the huge trunk of a mature oak tree, its branches full of green leaves spread under the blue sky. Branches from another oak tree are on the left.
