In an environment like this with evergreens as far as the eye can see, our deepest thoughts would be evoked to wander and wonder. A clever haiku my friend. John, wishing you and yours a bunchful of wonderful surprises in 2021 - I feel optimistic! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Thanks for the upbeat comment, dear friend. Though my nation's capitol is erupting in mayhem and violence, I share your optimism. Maybe that's just our nature, but it's nice to be in friendship with other optimists who can point to the light in the darkness. God is good ~ John

Wow, so introspective, John, I can feel your love of the outdoors in this, makes me think of the magnificent trees in my own state of Oregon!
