Palmetto in the middle of Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge in Georgia.

I kinda went out on a limb this week, well a palmetto frond. The challenge says I can use leaves and foliage so here you go. I captured this last week when we went to Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge in Georgia.

Palmetto fronds in many shades of green in the foreground with tall pine trees in the background.

Reaching for the light
Raise my fingers to nurture
One frond at a time

Tough as any rock
Fan shaped leaves puncture at tips
Into the skins touch

Pines stand guard today
Fanning covers for the birds
In natures daylight

    • Thank you. You’re pushing me out of my comfort zone and I’m taking notice of things I’ve taken for granted. 🥰

    • Thank you William. I was sitting in the car, looking for the elusive Red-cockaded woodpecker and noticed the sunlight and green everywhere, snapped a shot.
