Nature Quote by Henryk Sienkiewicz

“There, about a dozen times during the day, the wind drives over the sky the swollen clouds, which water the earth copiously, after which the sun shines brightly, as if freshly bathed, and floods with a golden luster the rocks, the river, the trees, and the entire jungle.” quote by Henryk Sienkiewicz — Download Open image
