Well , hump day is feeling particularly humpish today, and most of the trees have made the transition from flowers to leaves, but this old Japanese weeping cherry is holding on…and looks like it has been holding on for many a year on that city corner. The bark is rough and the bows are gnarled and heavy. There is a split in the middle that shows the weight it carries and has carried and carried. And yet, the blooms are stunning on this grey and somber morning…so I say, see the beauty today where you can. That’s what I’ll work on today.
