Waiting Winter Trees - Corvallis, Montana


"Oh, they are lovely trees that wait
    In the still hall of winter,
    Silent and good where the Good Planter
Fixed the root, wove the branch delicate.
...And here, too, silent by their side
I stand in the woods, listening, upright,
Hearing in the cold of the long pause
    Of the full year
    What trees intend that I should hear…
~ from Trees of Winter by E.B. White
