This poem was inspired by this tree which has suffered so much in its few years. It was cut down by a beaver, but survived and now has two main branches reaching for the heavens testifying to its perseverance. May we too become stronger through adversity.
Raspberries have always been my favorite berry. They are so tasty, and easy to grow. Or we can just pick the wild ones that are growing in various places around our yard.
These close-up photos of a raspberry give me a whole new appreciation for my favorite berry.
