THE SILHOUETTES OF TREES

I've been thinking about the silhouettes of trees.

Roughly speaking, there are circles and semi-circles on sticks (like Oaks).

There are triangles on sticks (like Cypress and Spruce ).
There are sticks on sticks (like Poplars).Blobs on sticks (Apple Trees).Chimney brushes (Larch).

Feather dusters (Willow and Birch).Loo brushes and Parasols (Palm).
Candyfloss (Sweet Chestnut).Floppies like willows which weep;

And upwardly pointing cordylines.

Where there is snow, the triangle rules ok.
In Dorset, there is variety.

The bus to Lyme Regis leaves in ten minutes.
