Journal Piece #3

I like how the mound of rocks and sand has formed its own structure. One side is higher than the other and it has a different looking texture than any other mound. I like the circle of rocks around the flowers. There are many different types of plants inside the circle. There are piles of dirt all over the ground around the circle, as if people were recently raking. There are flowers of all sorts of colors: red, yellow, orange, white, and even dead, brown ones. All the flowers move simultaneously with the wind, as if they’re dancing together. There’s a tall plant that is big at the bottom and as you look higher up the plant it gets smaller. There is a tree that is around 6-7 feet tall with dark green to brown leaves. There are leaves that are green-fading to yellow-that look like star fruits. I just noticed on the piece of wood in the middle of the circle that there is a sprinkler-looking device. There are trees of many different colors and forms. There are trees ranging from small to very large. Some are pine trees; some are yellow, orange, red, green, brown; some have no leaves on the-they just have branches. Some trees have branches that seem to just grow straight up. Then there are trees with branches that criss-cross. As I look around, I notice a tree with candy apple red leaves. They are the brightest leaves I’ve ever seen. They are even brighter than these red flowers in front of me. The buildings have the same color scheme-which I’m pretty sure that’s how it’s supposed to be. They are gray, white, beige; some even have a rock structure.
