It's hard to describe the joy I get when I'm feel completely enveloped in color. In spring and fall the colors in the woods are so intense. They almost glow. And when I'm deep in the woods, plants crowding the path, surrounding me, and sunlight is pouring through the canopy setting everything alight...all I can do is stand still, soak it in, and smile.
In spring the color is green. Everything everywhere is turning green. That bright yellow-green. The forest floor is carpeted with maple seedlings, young trees splash fresh leaves into the spaces between dark brown trunks, and the ceiling is a kaleidoscope of green, brown, and light.
