Oranges Trees

We were driving along down a wide street last week and I looked up and saw this huge, magnificent tree covered in orange blossoms. A few days later we discovered a smaller tree right on our side street. All the flowers have left the trees that bloomed in the Spring but now we know about these vibrant orange flowers to look forward to next summer. The irony: It takes this intense heat to bring on this beauty. How like it all. Good and evil. Sadness and joy! Tumult and peace. . . . .
