This is a poem I originally wrote for the Flowering Almond at the Glen Ivy Community, where I used to live. I was out photographing up in Fall Creek yesterday when I saw this remarkable apple tree alone in a meadow in strong, contrasting light.

    Sandy… I love the initial image… yin/yang with the tree crossing over as life inevitably does, pressing beauty into open space…
