A Conversation
I asked the tree, 'Why are you so wise?'
It swiftly replied.
We are wise because we are fully engrained in our environment.
Our roots drive deep into the rich soil and speaks with mycelium in a language that only we understand.
Birds rest upon our branches and shelter their families here while the insects, moss and lichen grow upon us.
Fungi fruit around us as our leaves are shed, preparing for another year.
We listen to the voice of the wind and relish the vital energy of the sun.
Bird song echos among us as we witness the regeneration of another Spring.
We breath in what you breath out.
We are here to be with you.
This is why we are wise.
