Deep are the shadows
where my heart longs to flee—deep,
deep inside of me.

I could inhabit that spot quite easily.

I like how you can see the sunlight turning the tops of the leaves white and how the shadows on the tree trunks look like dark spaces waiting for jigsaw pieces to be placed.

The shadows from the leaves look like some kind of stencil on the trunk of the tree...beautiful!

Looks like a lovely spot in dappled shade to sit, dream, and write poetry.

Yes, the bunny might be in the pot next week! I had a bit of trouble with my banner when I changed the blog look-is the real reason!
That looks like a lovely place to spend some time. Hope you enjoyed it!

There's nothing like a spot with ferns....this shadow shot looks magical - so quiet you just want to sit and observe nature!

What a pretty, peaceful shadow shot--it looks like a good place to lie in a hammock and dream.
