It took a stranger some time to fall in love with its harsh outlines and stark, black trees.

Even the stark, bare trees seemed to be gasping for light and life.

The woods were a study in black and white, stark trees cutting a web across the moonlit sky.

At last the unchanging forest of stark bonelike trees began to thin.

A line of stark, deadwinter trees writhed in the wind.

But lines of stark, winter-stripped trees made the roads more obvious than they would otherwise have been against the piled white background.

Those stark trees, and the devastation they represent, have angered many people.

A steep path, leading away from the river, wound up between low, stark trees.

The trees stark and leafless against the dull €ky.

It hurt Pat worse than anything else to see the dead stark trees of the birch grove.
