Lovers Oak.....by Reid Callaway
Live Oak Tree
Brunswick Georgia Art
This huge 900 years old Live Oak tree is located in Brunswick, Georgia near St. Simons Island and Sea Island Georgia. So when you are in the area stop by and see this tree's limbs reaching across the street and drooping into the neighboring yards on this quiet street. You will stand in wonderment at the sight.
The Brunswick area is rich in live oak trees, particularly the Southern live oak. Such is the quality of the live oak trees in the Brunswick and the Golden Isles area that Revolutionary warships such as the USS Constitution (nicknamed Old Ironsides) were clad in St. Simons Island oak planks. Brunswick has a notable live oak named "Lover's Oak" (located at Prince and Albany streets). As of 2005, it is approximately 900 years old. According to the State of Georgia and American Indian folklore, Native American braves and their maidens would meet under the oak.
Think about this...
It's the 12th Century and the dust from the turmoil in Europe has settled. Viking invaders have become permanent residents, and crusading Catholic knights are riding away to regain the Holy Land. In Asia, the powerful Khmer Empire is flourishing in Cambodia, and Angkor Wat is under construction. And in the sandy soil near the coast of what is now Southeast Georgia, a small acorn sprouts and reaches toward the sky. Nine hundred years later that live oak tree still stands.
