The Weight of Sky


I was cold, my fingers numb. A little bit hungry - well, starving actually. Couldn’t really feel my toes and all I wanted to do was hurry home, eat something (a lot of something) and upload my photos from an early morning Zoo trip.

I have been to the Zoo countless times, dove on the same road just as many, if not more and parked at the parking lot equally as much - but never have I ever seen this tree. I swear it has never been there before.

Either way, something compelled me to turn and look, slamming on my breaks (good thing I was only in a parking lot), pulling slightly out of the way - I just stared. The most stunning tree, holding the weight of the sky - stared back.
