The Big Mama Tree

Yellow Willow
This tree sits outside my kitchen window and I have fallen in love with it. Big and sprawling this yellow willow holds a presence of strength. I think of it as the Big Mama of the pasture.

But we, insofar as we have power over the world and over one another, we must learn to do what the leaf and the whale and the wind do of their own nature.  We must learn to keep the Balance.

–Ursula K. Le Guin, The Farthest Shore
