Trees are our elders br we look up to them. br Their leaves shield us br from life’s harmful rays. br Their breaths are our breaths br as ours are theirs. br They dot and form our land br they are our world. br When we breath in the air br they are there. br Trees are from childhood memories br cocooned in their warmth. br Their greenery is a soft caress br of a loving mother. br Their hard bark is a place br for you to rest your back. br Their outstretched hands br dapple with the sun. br Trees are peace br they are hope. br When you’re down br they are up, supporting you with care. br Their feathery touch gently soothes br the ache and pain away. br Trees are life br both our beginning and our end.
