In a Garry Oak Meadow

As I stood painting this piece

I couldn't help but be awed by

these marvelous trees.

They have stood the test of time.

Encircled by development and

its accompanying pressures these towering

remnants of a very specialized ecosystem

still evoke the grandeur of nature.

This copse of Garry Oaks, perhaps more

than one hundred years old,

are an amazing testament to

 the resilience of nature. 

I hope these wonderful grandmothers

of the meadow can 

go at least one hundred more...

Of A Summer Evening

'Late of a summer evening
when from off the sea
a lively breeze
moves through the trees
Swallows and Martins soaring high
in the fast fading rays
of the summer sky
and the golden glow
of these halcyon days'
