This beautiful "moon above the trees" inmediately remembers me of an old song by american songwriter James Taylor: "That lonesome road". Here goes the lyrics:
"Walk down that lonesome road all by yourself Don't turn your head back over your shoulder And only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon Is shining high above the trees
If I had stopped to listen once or twice If I had closed my mouth and opened my eyes If I had cooled my head and warmed my heart I'd not be on this road tonight
Carry on, carry on Never mind feeling sorry for yourself It doesn't save you from your troubled mind
Walk down that lonesome road all by yourself Don't turn your head back over your shoulder And only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon Is shining high above the trees"
I hope you like it; if you can hear it, much better; it's very special.
Thank you heartily for your very warmhearted and beautiful comment.
I know the various songs of James Taylor, but was completely unaware of his great "That lonesome road" until now.
Thank you for letting me know such a touching song. Immediately I checked YouTube and could find it.
Our paths of life may resemble a cold lonesome road and we may come across different precious episodes during this solitary journey in a wintry wilderness.
May the silver moon guide us with her serene moonlight.
Thank you again so much for your kind comment and support to my blog.
I noticed this winter moon high in the cold steel-blue sky when I was about to leave the garden after photographing the flowers of early flowering Ume trees.
In the traditional culture of Japan, the moon symbolizes the absolute truth which beacons our lost minds.
