An Oasis in the Midst of Brooklyn
By Norma Jaeger Hopcraft
Spring has quickly sprung past these photos, taken a week ago.
But they illustrate a timeless truth: With persistence you can find a place of beauty even in a gritty city like Brooklyn.
Very grand, very old trees have survived in Brooklyn's Prospect Park despite generations of people encroaching on them constantly.

A garden hut a la Brooklyn.
The entrance at the corner of Flatbush, Empire and Ocean Avenues.
Brooklyn trees love to bask in their glory, just like blooming trees everywhere.
A quick visit to Bryant Park in Midtown Manhattan. Soak up spring wherever you might be!
