My life as a tree.

[Raz]

I would stand my ground
and the light and the air would nourish me.
I would remember my strengths
and the nooks of my branches would nurture those smaller than me.
I would reach up to the sky and down through the ground
and my roots and the tips of my leaves both would give thanks;
Thanks to the world for having me here,
thanks to each part of it for making its mark,
and I would spend my days teaching quiet nobility
in my life as a tree.

I love it, so good and honest.

i like it
a simple yet retrospective piece.

Just plain fab!

"quiet nobility" indeed. That's my favorite part. Humans could learn from trees if they bothered to make the connections.
