Skywatch Friday: What's Old is New

DSC00162

It was a hot afternoon; old lady that I am, I had to sit down. And look up. I noticed the tree was growing around this part of The Cloisters the way trees grow around each other, though in this case the tree was accepting a right angle turn as part of what you do when you're a tree. In summertime, I like to sit back and see how trees curve round each other, giving each other room to--I don't know--be trees. Here was this happening in New York in an interaction between a tree and some stones rearranged from Europe. I loved seeing this. I wish I could be this way.

  22. I love the shape of the space between the angle of the building and the frilliness of the leaves!

  23. It appears to me that the tree and the building are demanding that you look into that beautiful blue sky and lift up your spirit.

  24. It's amazing how our mind wanders when we really look at something. Most people would just look up and not give it another thought. Also, give it some time and perhaps this tree and the stones shall meet.
