The sycamore grove

Banks is perhaps too grand a word to describe the channel our little stream has cut for itself, and yet I find it remarkable that the channel is there at all. When we moved here twenty-six years ago, that area had been plowed over and turned into smooth pasture. We decided to let it go. At the downstream end, where there is an underground channel, we didn’t mow or trim. For many years the area was just a thicket of bush honeysuckle and blackberry jungles, but over time the sycamores and hackberries have asserted themselves and created a little grove.
