Walked along a dusty dirt road hoping to find a place where I could just unload this heavy burden of grief that weighs down on me and before long I found myself perched under a huge shade tree-- the wind blew strong tossing the branches and leaves about and I kept hoping somehow this tree so huge and stout would look inside of me and somehow help to just set me free.
Trees know far more than we humans do, you know-- so often trees stand tall and proud and continue to leaf out and grow while we humans stupidly continue to destroy and wreck the land and all the while the trees just keep standing so proud and grand --so is it any wonder that I dare to hope this huge tree will help that it will somehow care about all the burdens I carry now? I suppose it's too much to ask of this sacred gift of nature right now...
