TREES ARE SURELY ~ THE HIGHEST FORM ~ OF PLANT LIFE !
WE TALK TO THE TREES ~ but they dont
Listen to US ~ they dont have to !
BUT ~ they do speak ~ in response to
WIND ~ in a language we cant comprehend !
TREES do not have to scream (like us !)
For attention ~ they have their own
PRIDE / DIGNITY ~ rooted to Earth
Their Branches & Leaves ~ Serenade the SKY !
A TREE has SERENITY ~ and
A PERMANENCE denied to MAN
Stays where its planted ~ and it has
GREATER INFLUENCE ~ than we*ll ever KNOW !
WE KNOW ~ that we will never see
Anything ~ LOVELY AS A TREE !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love A & B 🧡💙🧡

A lovely tribute to one of the planet's greatest blessings - - trees are a marvel and thank you for this needed reminder...........
Good afternoon FAY - Angela here ! Ive always loved TREES - for Climbing - for Beauty - for Fruit - for Wood and for controlling Atmospheric CO2 (CO2 IN - O2 OUT). The only time I get cross with them is in the Autumn when their 3D leaf canopy ends up in 1D in MAMAs yard ! I Never take trees for granted !
Blessings & Love & Peace

Trees are wonderful to be with and they do talk to us showing their beauty and wisdom if you listen, but you must listen where many do not.
The song 'Talk to the Trees' is part of a question I often ask "Who sang Talk to the Trees in Paint Your Wagon?" not many people know that it was Clint Eastwood.
ANGELA HERE - Thnaks UNCLE ANDY for an interesting comment. In the twilight or dawn - I find the trees at their most communacative. I find that communicating with the TREES - wherever I am in the World - often resolves a PROBLEM - I have in my mind - AMEN ! I just share my PROBLEM and it somehow resolves ! Most trees understand English & those the dont understand Spanish ! Pleased you enjoyed the VIDEO !
Blessings to YOU & YOUR BELOVED JOYCE
Love ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡💙🧡💙🧡
