BEING A TREE

Being a part of nature, part of the Wilderness,

Part but essential as trees are to me.

Trees have played a consistent part in my life.

Always, always, there have been trees.

Trees to admire, to climb..

And later to chop down

To provide warmth and comfort.

Being among the trees a quiet, exquisite comfort.

A place of serenity where I belonged.

I didn’t see that I could be a destroyer of the beauty, of the peace, of the trees.
