This is a Cherry Blossom tree right outside our rented apartment. Last year when I came here, this tree was bare in winter. It resonated with my feelings of finally finding the courage to travel against all odds.
I still remember the spring blooms from last year. It brought a lot of calmness in me. This is one recent shot and one of the first from outside my present home
This is my first tree here. Since it’s right out of my window, it’s easy to track everyday. It’s like looking out to a friend and waving to them everyday. You don’t know them, neither have you talked to them, but that ritual makes your day.
I’ve seen this one shed it’s most beautiful flowers, the green leaves turn Yellow and brown and finally fall down as we entered winter. Totally cold and bare throughout winter, but blooming again in Spring.
If there’s one Life lesson I learned from this tree, it is Patience.
“Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence.” – Hal Borland
I am Participating in Parul’s Thursday Tree Love Edition.
Thursday Tree love is a photo feature hosted on Parul’s blog on every 2nd and 4th Thursday of a month. If you would like to play along, post a picture of a tree on your blog, tell her where did you spot the tree and link it back to her post in her blog.
Wonderful post Jayanthy! A big Hi to your tree friend from me!! 🙂
Thank you so much Archana 🌄
What a lovely tree and I know what you mean on a tree friend. I had one when we were on our rented apartment. I felt like I knew that tree. 🙂 Thank you for joining with this entry from your home. See you tomorrow.
Wow that’s very nice Parul. Yes, they become so close like a good friend.
