Beneath a Tree

Here I sit
beneath a tree.
Heartfelt calm.
Soul hums free.

The process of shedding bark is known as exfoliating.

It is a natural process in which bark peels off a tree in thin flakes, scales or layers and exposes a new bark layer.

Shedding bark is just part of a tree's natural growth process.

Nice on Black.

Is it a female tree? Don't women exfoliate? Asking for a friend.

@skipt07 Ha!Ha! I do not know if it is a female tree. We didn’t plant it but it is my favorite crape myrtle with a lovely rounded shape. :)

I love when the Crape Myrtle bark sheds in the fall. They have such pretty thin layers of bark and shades of color. Thank you for your views, comments and favs.
