I travel a lot and I always sit in a window seat. I am a confirmed window gazer.
Not too long ago during approach into Baltimore on a beautiful clear autumn day, I got an eagle’s view of the fall foliage colors. And yet, the thing that impressed me most from that high place was not the oranges, or the reds, or the goldens. No, oddly, it was the evergreens.
From my view out the window I could clearly see the way the wind blows. How the seeds of pines and other evergreens grow stands, that reach like fingers down from the tops of mountains. The greens on that autumn day impressed me.
And made me think of this winter song entitled “Green” by Peter Mayer, one of my favorite singer-songwriters. Here’s a YouTube link, because I’m too dumb to get my blog to embed the video. 🙁
