Memory lane on my mind for some reason........TREES! ♥...........For decades, some 5 or so....especially a few decades ago.♥ I would take on any walks in the woods, in like a 5 or more mile radius, wherever I lived, or visited......a small bag to gather seeds from trees, apples, oaks, beeches, maples, you name it......and a small trowel.....and do the Johnny Appleseed thing...planting the seeds, sometimes even pine and other evergreen saplings....everywhere!♥ It is a wonderful thing when driving around, seeing huge trees, some like 70 feet tall, knowing I planted them long ago! ♥Seeing stands of multi specied trees, or small forests, I am responsible for making happen!♥ Wondering who ate the apples off the many trees I planted, wondering who may have sat under or climbed my trees!♥♥♥♥------------------ I must perhaps resign myself to having only stolen and brief tastes of happiness, for it appears that I may never be invited to the feasts. ~LEXX The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation A stereotyped but unconscious despair is concealed even under what are called the games and amusements of mankind. ~Henry David Thoreau IP: Logged |
