In front of me is a small tree. This tree’s position is somewhat strange because it is on a grassy knoll overlooking a drainage basin. The sun is shimmering beautifully on its slightly orange leaves. It is a small tree only about seven feet in stature. Its trunk splits at the very bottom and creates a wide diameter flat area on top. Its upper leaves are more orange and the sun is mainly shining on its upper half. The lower leaves of this tree are a minty, green color. The birds and bugs are chirping happily all around and the temperature feels like it is in the seventies; it is beautiful, cool weather. This tree if it were larger would look like a series of trees due to its natural split at the very base of the trunk. The knoll that it is sitting on is about two or three feet in high, therefore the top of the tree stands at about ten feet. There are almost no clouds in the sky except for a few wispy, cirrus clouds. It is a beautiful day, and I am excitedly anticipating my soccer practice tonight. I also hope that we will get to play some ultimate frisbee on the lunch break. This day is beautiful because of the torrential rain we had only two days ago. The air is crisp and fresh and I am enjoying the opportunity to journal outside today.
