San Francisco Solitary Trees
On consecutive walks in the city
I came upon separate solitary trees sharing their light and oxygen with me.
I found reflections of self in these lonesome trees
and knew no way to take them in my car or even across the street
So I shot them, not with cannon or laser but handy little phone
Edited them quickly and now they are never alone.

From the initial image I saw promise
some paint and Spackle dotted here and there
a few lens filters for texture
now I have them with me
my solitary trees posted here on the web of information for all to see
Share my days I wish so often could be
with each of you blissful readers
while you likely cannot come with me
you may take your own bit of joy from
my San Francisco Solitary Trees
Beautiful. I can relate to being a lonely tree, even if, to some, that doesn’t make any sense.
Jessica,
I would imagine much of the world I try to capture in words or images makes little sense. I get this and it makes me much happier when readers who share a little emotion or empathy with my characters respond like this. This post really disappointed me until today; until the comments I received assured me the simplicity in the elementary rhyme was offset by these powerful images.
Thank you!
Nice job spiffing up the blog – nicely done. Interesting trees – great find. Thanks for sharing
yeah, just a little dust kicked off the edges. more changes coming. These images make me happy. Thanks for the encouragement
Beautiful! I love the new makeover!
yeah, just dressed up the WP blog a bit
I am working on some changes for all the blogs adding an online store for my photographs and a new audio podcast coming soon of my prosaic pieces….glad you like the new digs. Cheers Susie!
