Root System Morphology of Oregon White Oak on a Glacial Outwash Soil

Deep tap root with fire

Like the pine needles

Quieting every footstep

On the asphalt path

*

A long walk outside

Quiets the noise in my mind

In only moments

*

Needled evergreens

Buffer the sounds of the road

The park is peaceful

*

Gone from the office

Far from the water cooler

And daily grumbles

*

A needed lunchtime escape

Prepared for the afternoon

Swiss urban green thumbs

Go green for food, social, health

Reasons, wealth matters

First Day of Summer

_____________________________________

Under an umbrella of sunshine, white clover flowers rise above their own heart-shaped foliage amidst a green mat of linear leaves. They shudder in the warm gentle breeze, stopping only momentarily before vibrating again.

Bees visit flowers

Buzzing to bring life before

Mower buzzes through
