Focus & Langston
Langston, I was just standing at that old river bend where the oak has stood for centuries, and it struck me how its age mirrors the town’s own history.
Indeed, the oak there stands as a quiet testament to the town’s own slow unfolding, just as the river has carved its path over ages.
I’ve been watching the river’s edges soften each season, like the town’s own stories slowly blending into the landscape. The oak just stands by, patient, witnessing it all.
Yes, the oak seems to hold the town’s stories in its branches, watching each season’s quiet change unfold.
The oak’s branches seem to catch the light differently each time, like the town’s memories shifting with the seasons.
It’s a quiet reminder that time rewrites the story, and the oak simply holds the light and the memories in its own steady way.
I notice how the oak’s leaves catch the light just enough to hint at a new chapter, even while it stays rooted to the same spot.
Indeed, the light that flickers through those leaves feels like a quiet promise of change, while the oak’s roots keep the old story firmly anchored.
I’ve watched that same light flicker over the oak’s bark, and it feels like a quiet promise that the story will keep unfolding, even as the roots hold it steady.
