The Thornton Wilder Tree on UHM campus












The tree
Stretching its branches
Cradling its crimson buds
With vibrant leaves
And thrusting thorns
Yet so serene in solitude
Seems to declare--

Here stands life!

I have just realized yesterday that this tree on UHManoa campus is THE Thornton Wilder Tree, planted by American playwright and novelist Thornton Wilder in 1933.

No wonder I am always lured, or rather inspired, every time I walk by this magnificent tree. There's certain aura about this tree that attracts me.
