A wonderful story about the cycles of life and nature. You are quite the storyteller. I wonder if trees have some awareness, not sure. I have made them my new favorites at any rate this summer and fall.

~ of the conifer and the bluejay, the acorn - squirrel and OAK ~ blissfully of nature, creation and Autumn. and of the stages of life as well. Beautiful and inspiring, my dear Kabu...Elyse

I keep thinking of the tree
in Pocahontas. Wisdom, age and a time to know when to say when. Beautiful!

You are a good little story teller Kabu I wonder. No stoppit Albert. I notice another species of trees have a virus now the elms have gone that were used for different things the horse chestnuts look terrible and now a fir tree. We did have fireblight once it killed a lot of hedges and one type of pear tree. Poor old trees they are getting bashed all over. I suppose some are cut down because folk need the ground, but it doesn't bode good for the planet.
