Leaf and branch whisper
Join in song with heartwood’s beat
Ancient melody
Earth’s memory held in trust
Shared soul to soul in silence
*
For Colleen’s Poetry Prompt
“Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them,
whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth.”
~ Hermann Hesse

Amazing illustration… I wonder why it is we think some trees are women and others men? Maybe they are telling us what they are in their silent language 😉
Some fruit trees do need both sexes to produce fruit.

Perhaps our perception of gender refers more to spirit and function than to form.
