The Tree

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity… and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.

William Blake

  1. I see it as not only sacred and divine, but as living and beautiful as is all else that has life on our planet, it’s a species of it’s own. I struggle each day with those who see trees as something in the way, tearing them down to make way for things we already have too much of, tearing them down as if they have no idea how much more we need them, then them us, no idea of how little right they have to do so and how many other lives, beings, species are taken down with them. For me, nature isn’t imagination as much as society as most know it is. <3
